Story

Claire and AJ's friends tried to set them up in SLC together for years. They were unsuccessful. Then, they matched on hinge and tried to go on a date. But Claire bailed at the last minute. So, they were unsuccessful. Claire lived with AJ's coworker and AJ lived with Claire’s. They worked 200 yards from each other for 3 years and still didn’t cross paths. All unsuccessful. Eventually, they went on a drink date that last 4 hours, but it was unsuccessful (too much going on for both of them). Aj invited Claire to a night time ski race and told her to wear a costume, as he'd been told. She showed up in a full pickle costume and Aj showed up in a pepper hat. No one else was wearing costumes. This was unsuccessful. A climbing date was unsuccessful (at this point the friend zone had been entered by both). So, how’d we get here? A wedding! Love was in the air and we made out and the rest is history. So happy wedding to us all and consensually kiss someone this weekend, folks!

For all the days along the way
