The Story of Us

The Wedding Website of Hannah Kates and Mary Cervantes
We connected through Instagram in February 2020 & got to know each other texting & FaceTiming through quarantine. We discovered we grew up 10 minutes away from each other but never met! We also found out we both grew up spending summers in Sea Isle but again, never knew each other! With Mary now in the Poconos & Hannah two hours away in Delran, we decided Sea Isle was the perfect place to meet in person. On July 11, 2020, we had our first date which was... running errands on the mainland (we were so excited to be together it didn't matter what we did). We were inseparable for those 2 weeks until Mary had to go back home. We did long distance for over a year until Hannah transferred to ESU. We adopted our Daisy in 2022 & moved into our first apartment in 2023. We graduated college, started big girl jobs, fostered 12 stray cats and adopted five! We've grown and experienced so much together & we can't wait to start this next chapter of our story! Enjoy our digital scrapbook!
