Sometimes love finds you where you least expect it. For us, it was in line at Soho House on the opening night party for Miami's infamous art festival - Art Basel. Nicky made the first move, and despite a night of captivating and effortless conversation, Sofia left Nicky that night like a scene from Cinderella due to her early morning flight back to Ann Arbor the following day.
And so the love story began, as a long distance flirtation with memes and voice notes, Sofia in Law School at the University of Michigan and Eric Nicolas in Miami eagerly awaiting her return in December. When she returned a few weeks later, they had their first date at Mandolin, a Miami favorite, followed by an incredible concert (Carlos Vives - Sofia's favorite). That February Nicky made his first trip to Ann Arbor, braving the ferocious cold to see if they could make it through the winter. And, they did, quite happily, with frequent trips back and forth between the two cities and the promise of a summer, and potentially forever, in Miami together.
Through the seasons, through the heat of Miami and the challenges of law school, and with many beautiful trips along the way, Nicky and Sofi made it to where they are today - engaged and ready to continue their journey with you all the way to Toledo on September 18th for their wedding day.
