Ricky and Jessie met in early 2014 through mutual friends at JP's Pub in Burlington, Vermont. Friendship came quickly and easily for the two. In December of 2014 Jessie started working nights with Ricky at Keurig Dr. Pepper. Being on the same schedule helped their relationship morph from friends to best friends. They became each others support systems and confidants. Their love for each other was blossoming and neither of them had a single clue. Late in 2015, they shared an unexpected and amazing kiss that changed their lives forever. They knew that they needed to explore this path hand in hand. When they eventually told their friends, not a single person was surprised. Fast forward to valentines day 2021, Ricky got down on one knee and asked his best friend to be his wife. Jessie had planned on saying no as a joke, but in the moment could only find the word yes. If you get the chance to fall in love with your best friend, take it.
