Like many of you, our year has been filled with canceled plans, uncertainty, and challenges. But it's also highlighted what's most important to us - each other, our families, and our friends. We wish we could celebrate our love with all of you in person -- and we hope to do just that when it's safe to eat, drink, dance and hug each other! For now, we hope you will join us virtually as we exchange our vows at home.
Our love story began by swiping right on Bumble...A few weeks later, we had our first date at The Yankee Doodle Tap Room in Princeton on April 5, 2018. Despite living an hour+ apart, we found ways to see each other a few times a week and had fun discovering new places halfway between West Chester, PA and Lambertville, NJ. We moved in together in May, 2019 to our home in Furlong, PA. The past 2 1/2 years have been filled with trips to Maine, NYC, the Finger Lakes, Lake Nuangola, tailgating at Rutgers football games, hiking in local parks, running, perfecting Matt's pizza-making skills (and Abbey's taste-testing skills), exploring local breweries, lots of laughter, and so much love. This past August, we expanded our family by bringing home Oscar - a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever puppy, who has stolen our hearts (and quite a few socks).
On September 12, 2020, we headed down to Cape May, NJ for a weekend at the shore. After a perfect day of sunshine, salt air, ocean waves and wineries, Matt proposed on the beach, and Abbey hasn't stopped smiling since. We couldn't be more excited to start the rest of our lives together.
The adventure continues.....in Tampa Bay, Florida. We will be moving to The Sunshine State at the beginning of 2021 to pursue a new job opportunity for Matt! We hope you will all come visit once we are settled in! And of course, NJ will always be home, and we plan to come back north as often as we can.
