Our story began at the University of Delaware, where we were introduced through mutual friends. From the start, we shared a special connection and became close friends, attending fun date parties together through our fraternity and sorority. Since Tom and I were a year apart in college, we stayed close but didn’t explore the idea of dating until after we had both graduated. Even during that time, our bond remained strong, setting the stage for something truly special once the timing was right.

After college, we were both living in NYC and that was when our relationship truly blossomed. We would meet at the giant clock in the center of Grand Central Station and go on dates, exploring the city together. Over time, being together felt natural, and soon enough, we started officially dating.

Over the years, we've shared so many unforgettable moments that have shaped our journey together. One of our most cherished memories is our trip to Portugal, where we spent days exploring various cities, eating incredible food, and soaking in the culture. It was an adventure filled with fun and a shared love of exploring the world. Another defining moment in our relationship came during the COVID pandemic, when we found ourselves navigating an eerily quiet New York City. With the streets empty and life on pause, it often felt like we were the only two people in the big city. Those quiet days brought us even closer, as we found comfort in each other’s company, turning a challenging time into a meaningful chapter in our story.

Throughout our journey, we've supported each other through many challenges and milestones. We've been there for each other during the passing of close family members and beloved pets, celebrated graduations, moved apartments, and navigated countless career moves. Each experience has only strengthened our bond and deepened our love for one another.

The special moments that led us to tying the knot are countless, but one that stands out is the realization that we are each other's home. No matter where we are or what we're doing, being together feels right. Our love story is filled with laughter, adventures, and unwavering support, and we can't wait to continue writing the next chapters of our lives together.
