We first crossed paths in October 2019 on the dating app Plenty of Fish. Brendan sent the first message—having no idea it would change both of our lives forever. Conversation came easy, and before long we’d moved from the app to texting each other every day. After a few scheduling hiccups, we finally (and nervously) met in person. The plan was dinner and a movie at Jenn’s place… but we never did watch the movie. Instead, we stayed up talking about everything from favorite films to primordial pouches. The spark we felt online was just as strong in person, and we both knew right away that this was something special. Fast forward to November 2021: after Jenn came home from a long 12-hour shift, Brendan surprised her with a homemade dinner and a proposal in the comfort of our home. He had picked out an onyx engagement ring, and of course Jenn said yes! On September 13, 2025, we tied the knot in a small private ceremony in Forest, Ontario. It was the perfect day for us, and now we’re so excited to share the celebration with all of you at our Happily Ever After Party!
