Even though we were born and raised 20 minutes apart from each other in the Chicago suburbs it wasn’t until 2017, with the help of OKCupid, that we met in Oakland, California. After a bubbly first date at Starline Social Club and a magical second date dancing under the San Francisco skyline we both knew this was something special. Since then we’ve built a shared home with our sweet pup Amelia, spent countless nights camping under the stars, traveled the world together, and supported each other through a global pandemic. After more than a year of social distancing we couldn’t be more grateful for our good health and the opportunity to travel home to Chicago to celebrate our marriage with our family and friends!
