Story
Nick and Lindsay met at a Thelma & Louise themed birthday party in 2014. Elisabeth Morant was Thelma, Lindsay was Louise. Nick gave them each a $10 Subway gift card as a present. The moment Nick saw Lindsay he knew he was in trouble; it would take a few more encounters for Lindsay to remember Nick.
They soon became friends, bonding over a love of card games and dive bar pool tables. Nick was smitten and eventually asked Lindsay on a proper date. He picked her up from her apartment she shared with John Patton wearing a suit and carrying a potted plant, and sweated his way through dinner at Commonwealth. She wore heels and a floor length skirt and tried not to trip on the 20 minute walk. They made the relationship official on February 28th, 2015.
Nick met Lindsay’s family before a wedding while wearing American flag shorts, appalling her mother. Lindsay met Nick’s family at Christmas in Tasmania, alienating everyone by reading the rulebook during a game of Risk. Their families met each other a couple Christmases later on a trip to Europe where they celebrated New Year’s Eve by traipsing through Paris carrying a bottle of Jack Daniels.
Over their 8+ years together, Nick and Lindsay have traveled to Hawaii, Mexico, Denmark, Iceland, Korea, Vietnam, and all over the lower 48 - along the way discovering they both like to eat street food and totally wing their itinerary. They first moved in together to a 1 bedroom apartment in the Mission, not 50 yards from where Lindsay already lived - she’s not great with change. In 2020, they bought an apartment in a Victorian house in Duboce Triangle. A few months later they adopted their feisty mutt, Roux, to guard the premises from the bay window.
Under the guise of a fun Thursday night with visiting friends from out of town, Nick lured Lindsay to Martuni’s piano bar. Puzzled, she watched him go up to sing a song, and slowly realized what was happening as he sang to her without breaking eye contact. As a marching band burst into the room, he popped the question and she excitedly accepted - at which point 20 of their closest friends also burst into the room and a party was had.
And now, in 2023, Nick and Lindsay can’t wait to see you at their wedding! <3
