It all began in 2020 (before the craziness) with a mutual friend. After teaching a yoga class, Natalie's friend, Annie, approached her about introducing her to a coworker at Annie's advertising agency. Annie went on to explain that this match dawned on her after seeing her coworker, Garret, stand awkwardly off to the side at a Christmas party. What was Garret and Natalie's magical connection? Apparently, it was that they are/were both incredibly awkward in social situations. Garret and Natalie swapped numbers and eventually decided to meet in person. (Ask Garret about the charming line he used to ask Natalie on this date...*hint- it's about his shoes.) To their surprise, Natalie and Garret's first date was not awkward at all! In fact, they agreed that their waiter was one of the most awkward people they have interacted with (they got free pretzels from him, though.) They stayed at the restaurant for hours until it closed down and until Garret asked Natalie to meet him at the trunk of his car... to give her a brand new book to read together (thankfully). Since that day, every day has been the same sort of goofy, fun, romantic adventure between Garret and Natalie. You can expect the same on their wedding day!
