Emily and Jared's journey began during their sophomore year of high school, in none other than math class! They started dating that March and have been inseparable ever since, navigating every stage of life side-by-side. After high school, their paths diverged for college, with Jared heading to Rider University and Emily to Temple University. Despite the distance, they made it work, taking turns visiting each other's "home away from home" every other weekend for four years. Once college wrapped up, they made the first big decision and moved in together in Marlton. Their little family grew with the addition of Beau, their adorable golden retriever, who's been bringing joy and excitment to their lives for over two years now. February 2025 marked another big step: they bought their first home together in Philadelphia! As only the second owners, they've completely transformed it, thanks to the incredible help of all their uncles, aunts, parents and friends for the sweat equity (a huge thank you to all of them!). These days, you'll find them happily cooking up pizzas in Jared's outdoor pizza oven, taking Beau to the doggy bar, trying new restaurants and enjoying time with their friends and family. They're incredibly grateful for everyone who has been a part of their journey and can't wait to celebrate with all of you on July 26th!
