How We Met! After a few missed connections, we finally met for our first date in December 2023, and from there our Boston-based love story unfolded. We often marvel at the connection...two Massachusetts natives who spent time living on different continents (Sam in Ethiopia for over a decade, and Erica in Hong Kong for nearly four years), found each other as close to "home" as one could get. Sam met Erica for a drink at the Fairmont Copley one cold evening in December, and the rest has been a beautiful history that we can't wait to keep writing. Despite being world travelers (and already sharing several trips and new countries together), we are so delighted to tie the knot in Boston! Love, Erica & Sam
