Hawks to throw wedding for couple who met at Swipe Right Night

In 2015, the Atlanta Hawks held the first Swipe Right Night during a game, encouraging single fans to come and meet other single fans on Tinder.

Two years later, one of the couples who met during the event will be getting married at a Hawks game and the Hawks will cover the cost.

ESPN’s Darren Rovell tweeted Wednesday Ben McCleskey and Avery Armstrong will tie the knot during a Hawks game in early-March and will cover the cost for 200 guests.
