Our Story

Facebook official?

Picture of Facebook official?

Ian and Lacey met the old fashioned way: Bumble. After some cute conversation and light roasting (Lacey told Ian his job as a playground designer sounded made up?) they had their first date at Moto-i in Minneapolis.

One night, after they had been dating for a month or two, Ian brought up the idea of being “Facebook official.” Lacey was totally oblivious to Ian’s intentions. The next morning she woke up to a Facebook notification that Ian had listed the two as “in a relationship” — hoping it would spark a conversation, not realizing it would post publicly to all of their friends. Once he realized, he spent the rest of the day sweating it out before Lacey clicked “accept” on this new relationship status. Needless to say, Lacey received a ton of calls and texts that morning!

One ring to rule them all

In December 2023, Lacey was gearing up to move into Ian’s house in Burnsville. At the same time, she was ending her job at Xcel Energy and getting ready to start a new job at U.S. Bank. On her last day of work at Xcel Energy, they happened to have tickets to see Mrs. Doubtfire the Musical at the Orpheum in Minneapolis. Lacey finished out her last workday early and planned to meet Ian for dinner after doing some last minute Christmas shopping and packing a few more boxes for the move. Ian suggested the two meet for dinner at Moto-i where they had their first date. At the restaurant, over some ramen, Ian proposed with a Lego ring box and Lacey said yes! They then picked out her engagement ring together.
