Like many modern love stories, Allie and Jake's started at a bar (Blu to be exact) on Varick Street in Utica, NY. Although the bar has since been torn down, they still look back on their initial encounter and cheers to the memories that were made.
In 2016, Jake and Allie moved to Columbus, OH. While they loved their time there together (mostly spent at the Winking Lizard), Central New York called them back. On one of the last weekends that we were there, in the midst of packing an entire apartment, Jake placed a small box on the mantle in the living room. Allie went about her day packing, completely oblivious of what she was about to find. Finally, after two hours of packing the living room and a breakfast break, she finally found the box. I guess you can say we brought back a little more baggage than we started with!
