Andrew and Mackenzie first met in 2013 while working at a small, old-school movie theater in Atlantic Highlands, NJ. They worked only one shift together, during which Andrew gave Mackenzie the nickname "Big Mac" (a name that stuck around for quite a while, following her to college). After that they went their separate ways until 2019 when Andrew came across Mackenzie on a dating app and sent a message that said "What a blast from the past!! What's up Big Mac?" They met up for lunch to catch up (as friends) and very quickly realized that this was going to be much more than just friendship. Fast forward to December 2023, Andrew proposed to Mackenzie, and they're so excited to start the next chapter of their lives in April with friends and family at their side.
