Carla and Jared had their first date in East Village on a Sunday night in October. And yes, there were TVs at the bar, so Jared was able to watch the Sunday night football game during the date (attention friends from outside the USA: that means American football, not football football). After that first date, they both knew they wanted to keep seeing each other, but it wasn’t until they were in Lake Tahoe a few months later that the L word was said. And yes, Carla got massages and read books while Jared hit the slopes. Fast forward to 24 June 2023, Jared dropped to one knee, Carla said “Sim!”, and the rest is now history. We are so grateful for all of you and very excited to see you on 17 May 2025! In the meantime, here are some fun facts about the couple: - Carla comes from the city of São Paulo (population: 13 million), Jared comes from the Croswell and Lexington area of Michigan (population: 3,000) and they were still able to find each other in New York city (population: 8.46 million) - Jared had never had okra until he met Carla - Carla had never ridden on a side-by-side until she met Jared - Carla’s ideal vacation consists of a beach and sun, while Jared’s of mountains and ten feet of snow, but they agree that it doesn’t really matter as long as they’re together <3
