We Are Getting Married!

Tess and Patrick met in 2009 at a mutual friends birthday party. They instantly became good friends. A couple months later, Tess left to study at The Culinary Institute of America, but they always remained close and became best friends. While Tess worked in New Orleans, she would call him every day with updates on her cooking life. Patrick came to visit and helped Tess move back to New Haven. Tess could not believe how amazing Patrick was with the move (he basically packed up everything for her). When they got back to New Haven they were inseparable and started dating. Since the beginning they have always been a package deal.
