Elizabeth and Kyle met online on a shared creative writing forum in May 2022. He asked her if she wanted to play a game with him sometime; she got way (way, way, WAY) too competitive and somehow didn't scare him off. The first movie they ever watched together was CATS: the movie (yes, the one with the creepy CGI cats), because Kyle lost a bet and Elizabeth picked it out. Most of their dates involved weapons: axe-throwing, archery, range shooting, and historical martial arts. They both regularly train in longsword fencing, and you might get to see them duel at their reception - you can place your bets for who will win via their registry page. Kyle can do a horrifyingly accurate Kermit impression, and Elizabeth can tell you the pitch of any note. Kyle’s favorite historical period to regale his friends with facts about is 11th-14th century Europe (especially France, a region which he and Elizabeth reenact with period-accurate garb and tools). Elizabeth’s is Imperial Rome or early-1900’s America.
