MEET CUTE? While working at the Beehive, a trendy live music bar and restaurant in the South End of Boston, Torie and Travis' paths would converge. Torie, a server, slinging drinks to the night goers and music lovers. Travis, a sound engineer, live-mixing the jazzy, bluesy soundtrack of the night. Though they knew little about each other and hardly talked, they were unaware of the impact each would have on the other. FIRST COMES WHISKEY After working together for around a year, things hadn't really changed. Their conversations consisted of little quips by the soundboard/waitress station. However one night, over drinks with friends, they began to commiserate and converse over life, love, and everything in-between. It wasn't long before these types of encounters became a habit for them. THEN COMES MARRIAGE Months had passed. Torie and Travis would only see more and more of each other. The winter had been long and cold and it seemed the only warmth either could find was in the words of the other. It seemed silly to ignore the obvious, which fast forwards us to today! Life is not as straight-forward as it was four years ago, but a small, thoughtful action or look from each other can make any situation feel as simple as a night back on the stage of that music bar in the South End.
There was a ring that Travis designed. They were in Portland for the National show. Travis was on one knee. Torie nodded yes. No words were actually spoken. It was perfectly them.
