The origin of Evan and Irene’s story is classic New York City. One summer night, Evan was at a concert in Central Park when he ran into a friend from overnight camp. That chance encounter led to an invitation to a housewarming party the very next evening that he and his girlfriend were hosting. Irene was also invited as she was the girlfriend’s best friend from nursing school. The stars aligned, and Evan and Irene met for the first time at that party. One conversation led to exchanged numbers, which led to a first date at a speakeasy tucked above a Jewish deli on the Upper East Side. From that point on, it didn’t take long for them to realize they weren’t just falling in love, they were becoming best friends. The kind who laugh at the same things, share the same values, and feel most like themselves when they’re together. One date turned into many. Irene grew accustomed to Uber rides to Evan’s studio apartment several nights a week, and Evan happily embraced Sunday dinners filled with homemade chicken cutlets. Before they knew it, they had found their perfect match and began building a life side by side. They both feel incredibly lucky to have found each other and cannot wait to spend the rest of their lives together.
