Some are surprised to learn that we have actually known each other since Fall 2010 when Corey attended an annual tradeshow that Anna had organized. We remained friendly from that point forward, developing a strong professional respect for one another and seeing each other at many GE events over the years. Things were set into motion for something more when Corey took a new role with GE in 2018, moving to Wisconsin and with a desk just a few feet from Anna's! Over the next few months we built a strong friendship, often giving each other a hard time in the office and spending time together outside of work with mutual friends. As spring turned to summer, Corey began to realize he wanted to break out of the friend zone and began building reasons to see Anna one-on-one. His first move was asking if he could store his suv in her spare garage space, coming by a few times a week to "swap cars"... sneaky, right? He then suggested a small group trip to Chicago over a weekend in August with friends Ron and Heide. We had an amazing time in Chicago, laughing constantly, and Anna slowly began to realize Corey wasn't so bad.... A week later, Corey asked Anna out after a day on Lake Michigan. Luckily for him, Anna set aside her crippling anxiety about dating a coworker and they had their first date Labor Day weekend. We've never looked back, and are honored you'll be with us to celebrate our journey!
