We spent New Year’s Eve together dancing and drinking; our first kiss was at midnight!” Peter comments, “Lauren took my breath away as soon as she walked into the room, I knew I needed to get to know this girl! I remember exactly what she wore: a red dress and a black shawl. I was immediately comfortable in her presence and couldn’t wait to get to know her more – the rest is history!” Peter proposed back in January 2021 during lockdown. The couple had spotted the perfect ring during Christmas shopping, but little did Lauren know, Peter went back the next day to buy it ready to propose at home.
