Parker and Ariana met at a coffee shop in downtown Charlotte, North Carolina where Ariana accidentally ran into Parker, spilling her coffee all over him. They agreed that instead of letting Ariana pay for dry cleaning, that she would go out to dinner with Parker.

From there, the two have been inseparable - whether it is exploring new places...or restaurants, or sitting at home with their two cats Sosa and Peaches, the fun never stops. We are delighted to share this chapter of our story with all of you!

Fun Fact: Ariana and Parker also met years prior at a St. Patty's Day Party at Widener University where Parker played collegiate football at. Parker was being a good friend by carrying his buddy home from the festivity's and caught Ariana's eye who decided to be bold and try to chat with him. It was a brief and friendly interaction only to come full circle years later to finally meet again in Charlotte.

And if that wasn't coincidence enough that the two were meant to be, they also matched on Hinge and chatted for a few days until Ariana forgot she even had the app on her phone. She also almost moved into the apartment complex right next to Parker's. Needless to say they are firm believers in the invisible string theory! 🩵
