We met as all millennials do - on an app! We both swiped right on Bumble and were smitten right from the start. In some ways we fit the stereotypes of where we were from - Chris the snarky, Patriots fan from the Boston and Julie the sweet Midwestern farmer's daughter. Chris can be quite the character and loves to shock Julie with his teasing and jokes, but luckily Julie has unending patience and ability to roll with it (along with rolling her eyes). And while different in our personalities (and politics - oy vey!) we find that we balance each other out while challenging each other as well. In our 5 years together we have already been through some challenging times and have persevered together with the love and support of family and each other. We even moved in together literally 2 weeks after the pandemic shutdown and our relationship and new living arrangement withstood the test of COVID ;). Along with the wedding, we have many exciting plans for 2022 and are just generally excited for what the future may bring for us.
