How we met

January 23rd, 2015

We first met for a drink after work at Watershed on a Friday night in the middle of winter. With so much to talk about, we ended up ordering food, more drinks and even ventured into the cold for a nightcap before saying goodnight. Our love of live music, traveling, sports, friends, and family brought us closer together. We can't wait to celebrate our love for each other with all of you who we also love very much.

The Proposal

February 2nd, 2019

We went to Massachusetts for Super Bowl weekend to spend time and watch the game with Patrick's family and friends. On Saturday beforehand, we drove into Boston with Patrick's brother, Chris, and his girlfriend, Ashley, to go ice skating at Frog Pond. Beth had no idea what was really in store for the day. After a few laps around the ice, Patrick told Beth to slow down. As she spun around and nearly fell down in the process, Patrick was trying to gracefully get down on one knee without falling himself. Beth was in complete shock and cried tears of joy as she realized what was happening. After Patrick asked will you marry me and Beth said I do, Patrick pointed out that his best friends were holding signs asking her to marry him. It was such an amazing day!
