How it all began . . .

We love our story, because our story is really one of true friendship. We met in 2018 on a sweaty dance floor in New York City; a dance floor we would come to share many times over for the next several years. When Gavin packed up his things and headed to North Carolina to farm in 2019, our paths diverged and we weren't sure when, or if, they would cross again. Life went on and each of us continued to dance in our respective cities. However, after nearly a year away, Gavin was called back to New York. Upon his return, our friendship continued - and deepened - through museum visits, walks in Greenwood Cemetery, an inappropriate amount of Ben & Jerry's, and a lot of Buster Keaton movie nights. And then, as if in a sweet blur of color, we fell in love. This love has taken us from New York to Minnesota, from Minnesota to the Pacific Northwest, from the PNW to California, and an impossible amount of places in between. We are so excited to marry each other and we are so excited to share in this experience with you. We'll see you soon. With love, Linnea and Gavin
