Love at first … bite. That’s how the saying goes right? Whenever we're asked how we got here, we always say it started with a soft pretzel. After a year of weekly weekend trips to Chicago to pursue his MBA, Holden relocated to the Windy City. Settled in, Holden began his search for the top Thai take out, only to find that the best kept restaurant couldn't be discovered on a delivery service but by swiping right on Courtney. On a snowy January night in Chicago we met at Dusek's for our first date. While Courtney talked a big game about the restaurant scene - she only ordered a soft pretzel to share. Ever since, the two have made up for "Pretzelgate" by hosting shabbat dinners, road tripping to Frank Pepe's, and, of course, recreating SoupStick (patent pending). Over the last three-and-a-half years, we've covered a lot of ground. Well, 2,065 miles to be exact. We moved to Seattle and started new jobs at Amazon and Microsoft. Holden taught Courtney how to ski, and Courtney convinced Holden to take swing dancing lessons. On any given weekend you can find us learning a new board game, hiking or visiting Seattle's best coffee huts. Whether it's Glacier National Park, Whistler or Puerto Vallarta, the best times we have are spent together. Now we’re ready for our next adventure; getting married in Newport, Rhode Island. We hope you'll join us -- and just maybe -- we'll show you our Lindy Hop.
