Lindsay and Brian grew up in the same town, went to the same school, were friends with the same families — Brian with the older siblings, Lindsay the younger. Despite sitting in the same stands, walking the same halls, and running in the same circles… they never met. After high school, they went away to college and went on to live in different towns. In 2020, in the midst of global challenges and abundant change, Lindsay’s company went remote, allowing her to permanently work from home. And home she went, not to a small apartment near the city where she’d spent the last several years, but back home to the place she’d grown up — where Brian too lived. Not expecting to find love, chance would have them starting the new year, 2021, talking to one another. Small talk and texts led to hours spent over food and drinks, puppy playdates, walks in the park, and before they knew it, they had fallen in love. They blended their families, each bringing a dog in tow, and moved in together. Since then they’ve made countless memories, made a house a home, celebrated birthdays, weddings, and births of those they love. And now they couldn’t be more excited to celebrate their happily ever after surrounded by family and friends. So here’s to new chapters with old friends and big love found in small towns.

We met at Ohio State when we were both still in college after being good friends for our second and third years – despite Matt moving to Arizona for work after graduation and Cassandra moving home to Philadelphia for law school, we made it work and eventually Matt joined the Dulas in Pennsylvania. After Cassandra graduated from law school, she had a job offer in London and Matt in his infinite flexibility said, “Let’s do it!” A year after moving we got engaged and two years after that we had our big day!
The short story is – at a Halloween Party. We started dating a few months later, in January of 2020, and became inseparable shortly after- literally, we quarantined together after 3 months of dating, then “officially” moved in with one another in September of the same year. And by that I mean Will finally gave up the Fidi apartment we first met in since we had been living together at my place in Astoria since March when lockdown first began.

Early on, we bonded over our shared love of practicing the “spirited” parts of our Irish heritage. On most Wednesdays you can find us at our favorite Irish pub’s weekly trivia night. On question 13 the pub pauses trivia questions to do an Irish toast complete with Irish whisky. Slainte!
We’re both longtime Buffalo Bills fans and enthusiastically cheer them on every game either from our couch or in person at the Ralph – no matter the weather!
We share the mentality that life is too short to take too seriously and will never pass up an opportunity to dress up like idiots.
Like every child in the North Country, Mike practically came out of the womb wearing skates and has been playing hockey since he can remember. Meg crossed off a bucket list item when she signed up for an adult learn-to-play-hockey program in early 2020. Even though we’re at very different skill levels, we enjoy cheering each other on and even playing together every once in awhile!
In case you haven’t noticed – we have a dog! Boomer is 80% cotton ball, 20% Napoleon and 100% our sweet, spoiled boy. He brings joy and laughter to our lives and we love him to pieces.
We both love to travel and each did a fair bit of it before we met each other. We’ve been lucky enough to travel to Hawaii and Banff, Canada together and are headed to Tanzania and Zanzibar next month for our honeymoon!
The Proposal:
After some hint dropping by Meg (subtlety varies based on who you ask) Mike popped the question on Saturday morning December 18, 2021! Mike had a dog tag made that said “will you marry me”, put it on Boomer’s collar and waited for Meg to notice. When she finally did, Mike produced the most beautiful ring Meg has ever seen. After saying, “is this real?!”, once or twice Meg followed it up with “Yes of course!”
