How we met

All it took was a little push and an unforgettable first date...

Matthew and Sarah grew up in two different small towns, only 5 miles (if that) from each other. Unfortunately they did not know each other throughout their school years. Matthew went to Smithsburg and Sarah went to Boonsboro. It is actually quite funny considering those two towns have always been rivals. The two of them graduated and went to separate colleges but you can believe only FATE brought them together. Sarah was finishing her internship to become a teacher. Matt was working a job down the road, but also working a part-time job. Sarah noticed Matt at his part-time job but the two of them only ever exchanged a word or two. One night, the both of them (separately) with their own friend groups, ended up at the Wolfe's Den. Sarah and Matt linked eyes multiple times that night but stayed afar. Eventually, one of Sarah's friends, Chelsea (one of her college best friends and bridesmaid), finally got tired of witnessing the eye exchange between the both of them and decided to chase Matt down. Quickly, a conversation sparked between Matt and Sarah. Within no time, they were texting and planning an unforgettable first date. Fast forward almost three years later and they are about to get married with their favorite people by their side.
