Every great love story has a beginning… ours just happened to start with a very boring fact. We matched on Bumble and dove right into some truly riveting small talk. Joe’s “boring” fact was that he has a lemon tree — which Rachel immediately declared was not boring at all. Rachel’s contribution? That her favorite form of potatoes is mashed. Our first date was in the cozy lakefront town of Port Washington, Wisconsin. There was laughter, easy conversation, and that “this might be something special” kind of feeling. Fast forward a few years, and Joe brought everything full circle by proposing in the very same place where it all began. And now, we can’t wait to tie the knot right back where our story started — with a little laughter, a lot of love, and maybe some mashed potatoes, too. 🥔💍🍋
