How we met

November 13th 2021

On November 13th, 2021, a murder mystery party took an unexpected twist, transforming into a tale of love on the high seas. Their mutual friends had no idea they were about to become the ultimate matchmakers. Paul's character, Tommy Bouy, was a cruise line employee who took "business casual" to the extreme. Sporting a gold chain necklace, a curly hair wig that would make any 70's disco star envious, oversized yellow glasses, and a blue suit so sharp it could cut through steel, he was practically incognito. Kara, playing the Cruise Ship Director, brought Charlie Charge to life. As the duo bantered in character, they found themselves wishing to chat as Kara and Paul, rather than Charlie and Tommy. With Paul's appearance shrouded in mystery beneath his disguise, Kara's curiosity piqued, eager to learn more about this enigmatic fun-loving guy. After swapping numbers, Paul orchestrated their first date—a culinary adventure that left them bonding over shared interests and wondering if they had somehow stumbled into their very own romantic comedy. Unable to resist her charm, Paul asked Kara out for a second date the very next night, citing his imminent departure for Thanksgiving as the reason to seize the moment. Kara was beyond smitten by this adorable gesture. Date #2 involved dinner and a jaunt around Little Italy, with Cupid's arrow striking both their hearts. Throughout the Thanksgiving holiday, Paul not only maintained contact but also sent Kara flowers, solidifying his role as a hopeless romantic and that feelings were growing. What began as a fun, murder mystery evening blossomed into a whirlwind romance filled with unforgettable dates, thrilling escapades, weekend getaways, family introductions, passport-stamping adventures, a lavish European vacation, and even a leap into the world of real estate. Fast forward to their engagement, and now they've arrived at their wedding celebration. As they revel in the joyous occasion with friends and family, Kara and Paul can't help but thank their lucky stars and the divine powers that be for the serendipitous journey that brought them together. With love and laughter, Kara & Paul
