Get to know Mikka & Ross ❤︎
How/when did you meet each other: On August 19, 2016 Mikka was traveling from Buffalo to Greece via NYC with her sister, Meagan. Ross was traveling from Buffalo to NYC for vacation. Mikka and Ross sat next to each other on the plane from Buffalo to New York City. They started talking, exchanged numbers and have been together ever since.
How did he propose: On March 2, 2019, Ross told Mikka that he had arranged for her to get her hair and makeup done as an apology after getting into a fake (although Mikka was unaware it was fake) argument the week before. Ross told Mikka that he got her an Uber to take her to the appointment, but the Uber was really her best friend from out of town and surprised her. When Mikka got back from her appointment she said that he friend was staying at the Curtiss Hotel in Buffalo and they should try to get a room for the night (Ross had secured a suite a month prior). Ross "made a reservation" at the hotel and then they went to a nice dinner just the two of them. After dinner they went to the hotel to check-in (Ross had already checked in and got the suite all set up). When they entered the room, there were flowers, champagne and Ross proposed. After the proposal, they went to the rooftop bar of the hotel where Ross had arranged all of their friends to be there to celebrate.
Mikka& Ross love everything about each other, they say “all of life’s moments are enhanced by the other being there” ❤︎ They enjoy traveling, doing new things, cooking and movies.
We just absolute LOVED meeting Mikka, Ross, Kennedy & Everly, what a sweet family!
Every little moment was cherished and they all truly LOVE so well. Kennedy was the best little Flower girl (she took her job seriously!) and made sure to dance the night away oh and baby Everly is the calmest most adorable baby I’ve ever met. Mikka & Ross were beaming with love a we LOVED to see it! After waiting for what seemed like forever for the big (thanks to COVID),Mikka & Ross made sure to celebrate BIG and we could not be happier for this beautiful couple. We wish you both ALL that is good. Enjoy it all!
