The couple first met in St. Petersburg, FL at a birthday party. Jack was visiting friends for the weekend, while Rachel was planning a birthday celebration. As you all know, the couple works for the same company. However, did not know each other until this day, September 13th, 2014. It turns out, they were both meeting with the same people for the birthday bash. This lead to a fun night of celebrating with friends and casual conversation getting to know one another. Jack had plans the next day with a family friend and Rachel offered him a ride home. Sly way to get someone's number, huh? Only kicker was Jack would have to attend the girls birthday brunch the following morning before the trip home. Jack was such a trooper! He was the girls' personal photographer. Rachel says that was what attracted her first. Any man to attend a girls brunch, and be a good sport about it, is definitely a keeper! His kind heart and contagious, energetic personality were just a few of his selling points. A few months later, Jack visited Florida again and took Rachel on a proper first date. We shared a bottle of wine and two entrees! I know...we shared food! It was clearly meant to be. The two have been inseparable ever since. Over the last five years, we have learned so much about each other and built a happy life together. We are so grateful to everyone who has helped us along the way, supported us, and encouraged our love. We are honored for you all to celebrate with us as we take on this next journey of our lives together! Now it's time to pop the bubbly!
