Lisa and Chris could have connected dozens of times before their first date five years ago. Chris had interviewed Lisa on a city corner in White Plains for an article about the economy when he worked at the local newspaper, but their encounter was fleeting. They wouldn’t realize the fateful brush happened until Lisa found that newsprint report pinned to her grandmother’s cork board years later. The Tarrytown, New York couple even shared a long list of mutual acquaintances, but they were meant to pair through a quirky dating app and legitimately meet on stormy December night at a tiny cafe shop in Bronxville. Lisa and Chris were immediately inseparable after two coffees and a rain-drenched kiss. Soon the young couple would replace java with homemade cocktails — and coffee shops with a cozy apartment by the Hudson River. The pair is now swapping interview questions for “I dos” and they couldn’t be more honored to share their love with you all.
