An inspiring and heartwarming collection of true love stories from the creators behind the viral Instagram and TikTok account @meetcutesnyc

In 2023, three friends—Jeremy Bernstein, Aaron Feinberg, and Victor Lee—took to the streets of New York City to ask couples how they met and what the secret sauce is to staying together. Today, they have more than 4 million followers on Instagram and TikTok, and more than 300 million views on TikTok, captivating audiences around the world.

For the first time in print, Meet Cutes NYC is a collection of 75 stories—a mix of new and fan favourites—alongside beautiful portraits of the couples, photographed exclusively for the book. Each interview opens the same way, "Excuse me, are you two a couple?" Followed by, "Can you tell us the story of how you met?" But the stories are each unique—like Chris and Clay, who met while auditioning for West Side Story (they both got it). And Joe and Liza met in a hardware store—while Liza was with her boyfriend at the time. There are stories of couples who met on public transportation, at a party, through friends, at work, at church—you truly never know where you might find love. There are also stories of second chances—like Mike and Karen—who met in college, broke up, and then bumped into each other again two years later, walking toward each other on Third Avenue; they fell into a kiss and have been married for 37 years.

Beyond how they met, couples share their partner's favourite traits, what they love to do together, and how they make their relationships work. Meet Cutes NYC is a celebration of modern-day love connections—across all ages, genders, and backgrounds. From couples who just met to those who have been together for decades. The book is a refreshing dose of real love stories, from real people. It will appeal to anyone in love or looking for love, to glean advice and inspiration from.

About the Author

In February 2023, three friends set out on the streets of New York City to uncover the stories of how couples meet. Today, that initiative has grown into Meet Cutes NYC, a thriving community of over 4 million followers. Jeremy Bernstein, Victor Lee, and Aaron Feinberg, the team behind Meet Cutes NYC, have captured the hearts of audiences worldwide with their signature opening lines: "Excuse me, are you two a couple?" followed by "Can you tell us the story of how you met?" Their work has been featured on the Today Show and in the New York Times, and they've had the opportunity to interview notable couples, including the President and First Lady of the United States. The stories they uncover delve into the authentic love and connection that flourish amidst the bustling streets of New York City.
