How we met

It all started with a craigslist ad. No, not the personal section. Billy's friend Tyler and now wife Bridget (our officiant) decided to move in together. Which meant Bridget's room in a 3 bedroom apartment on the upper east side was now available. When Jeannette answered the craigslist ad for the room, unbeknownst to her, she had magically injected herself into Bridget's friend group. A Christmas party here, a lower east side hangout there, and Billy and Jeannette became friends. For like a year. Then one day Billy got an invite to an amazing sailing trip in the British Virgin Islands that needed a stronger female presence. So Billy coyly asked Jeannette's roommate if she wanted to join. But on one condition. Only if she brought Jeannette ;-) It worked! And soon they set sail on an 8 person sail boat named Betty Blue. After that trip, (in which Jeannette passed some kind of test in Billy's head) they started hanging out more. "I like his voluminous hair and his interesting sense of humor", Jeannette thought. "She's so reasonable for being so beautiful," Billy kept thinking. Then on probably their first date, after sitting on the edge of a pond in Prospect Park in which all the birds and animals joyfully basked in our presence like a Disney movie, they took a long walk home. And not minutes after holding hands for the first time on a Brooklyn sidewalk, some lunatic little girl on a bike came out of nowhere, burst through our intertwined fingers and yelled "SORRY TO RUIN YOUR LOOOOOVE MOMENT!" Then she furiously pedaled around the corner and disappeared. At that moment we kinda knew we had something special.
