After first connecting on the dating app Bumble, Erin invited John to her church, Wethersfield Evangelical. They had lunch together afterwards, and 3 dates later they were head over heels for each other! John proposed to Erin on December 26, 2019♡
After initially setting a wedding date for October 9, 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic set in. We knew that there would be no way to have all of the people we originally planned on, and we wanted to make sure that our immediate family could still be here. So, we said "let's just do it on a weekend in the summer", and it just so happened that July 4 is the first Saturday of the month. It was perfect, so we got the ball rolling on our new game plan!
