It was early 2020, the dawning of a new year & new decade. Alina was living in Fed Hill, Jay in Canton. Just three miles away from one another, neither realized how close love lived. On February 13, 2020, the city was bustling with wide eyed romantics. It was that night, at the Charles that Alina & Jay would cross paths. There was instant chemistry. They ended the night exchanging numbers. A few short weeks later the world shut down. While everyone tried to find their new normal, Alina and Jay began getting to know one another from a distance. Fast-forward to May, with mandates and restrictions in place, Jay decided on a Crush Walk through Fells Point for a First Date. Kooper's Tavern served up delicious extra large crushes, the waterfront was gorgeous, & conversation lasted for hours. Now, almost 3 years to the day, Alina & Jay are so overjoyed to be returning to Baltimore to say their 'I do's' in front of all their friends and family.
