Jason and DeAnna first met in February 2013 at The Hamilton Park Hotel in Florham Park, NJ. They were both attending the new employee orientation, DeAnna being a lobby bartender and Jason being the new sports bartender. During the orientation, there came a time when attendees were broken up into groups and fate would have it that Jason and DeAnna were placed together. Once seated together DeAnna clearly states, "You write, I'll present." Jason, not being afraid to step up to the task, takes the marker and begins writing the group's ideas on the poster board. A few minutes go by and it is time for the groups to present. Their group turns to DeAnna and she says, "...I'm not presenting." So Jason reluctantly stands up and presents his lovely work. A few weeks later, DeAnna picks up a shift at Vanderbilts and Jason happens to be working. As the shift goes on, DeAnna starts complaining about how none of her friends want to go out. Jason says, "I'll go out with you" and they exchange numbers. Later that night she received a text from him, "Psssstt, it's Jason." Over the next couple of months, they would spend nights going out to local bars around Morristown and Summit with cheap drinks, pool tables, and darts. One night in November of that same year, after trying to recreate a Sunday Funday from her West Chester days with wings, nachos, and purple Gatorade shots, Jason asked DeAnna to be his girlfriend. 10 years later they have been fortunate enough to purchase a home, adopt 3 cats (Millie, Lucy, Kirby, RIP Charlie) & a dog (Mr. Morris Wellington), and now are getting married!
