How We Met

Table 19

Our story started when I met Jake's cousin, Cassie, and her husband, Andrew, at a wedding. We were randomly seated together at Table 19. For those not familiar, Table 19 is also a movie about a wedding where all of the reject guests sit at table #19, so our conversation kicked off with some good laughs about us being the rejects at the wedding we were at. Jokingly, Cassie and Andrew pressed my girlfriends and I about where our dates were so we asked them to find us eligible men. I told them I wanted a tall and funny guy, which they said the only guy they knew that fit that criteria was in a relationship (referring to Jake). I told them to tell Jake to break up with his girlfriend and come find me. Sure enough, 6 months later, I received a random friend request on Facebook from Jake. He added a message about how he hoped it wasn't weird he was reaching out to me, but he had just gotten out of a relationship and his cousins were talking about this girl they met at a wedding last summer. We started messaging and the rest is history! We are so excited to get married and celebrate our new beginning as husband and wife. Thank you for all of your support and encouragement along the way!
