Jeff and Sean met at Lehigh University, and started out as best friends throughout the majority of their undergraduate experience. It wasn’t until their senior year that their relationship grew beyond platonic. Following graduation, they began their careers in different cities while still maintaining an emotional bond and commitment to each other through a long-distance relationship. Every few months they would save up their money to fly on budget airline Frontier and visit each other. Sean would meet some of Jeff’s new friends in Denver, and Jeff would reconnect with old college friends from Lehigh in New York City. Together, they would experience their lives from a new lens, and dedicate time to reconnect to the roots of their relationship. In September of 2017, Jeff took a leap of faith and packed up his belongings to move to New York City to be with Sean. The two began building their life together in their first apartment in Harlem. After a few years jumping to a couple of different apartments, they’ve settled in their current apartment in Chelsea for the past two years. In June of 2022, Jeff asked Sean for his hand in marriage in the privacy of their apartment, followed by a small celebration of friends on their sundeck. Sean reciprocated a few months later in Jeff’s first home post-graduation in Denver, CO with one of Jeff’s groomswomen and close college friends, Stefanie Heinz. Jeff and Sean are so excited to celebrate their love and future together with you.
