For most of you, you know our story. But for those who don’t—sit back, relax, and pay close attention. Our story began in a way most would call unconventional. From the very first day we met, there was a feeling—strong, undeniable, and hard to put into words. It wasn’t just chemistry; it was something deeper. Over time, we came to understand that feeling as a quiet alignment of who we are—something that brought a sense of calm, connection, pure happiness, and love. Together, we’ve built a life rich with adventure. Our shared love for travel, breweries, food, and concerts has led to unforgettable moments—memories we continue to create.

We planned a trip to Denver, Colorado to see Morgan Wallen. On our first day there, Kelly had a surprise up her sleeve—a visit to a beer spa. And no, there wasn’t actual beer in the hot tub, but we did have our own private room complete with a whiskey barrel-shaped jacuzzi, a red and blue light sauna, a shower, and all the works. To top it off, there was beer on tap and even room service. It was the perfect mix of quirky and relaxing. And in that cozy, unexpected setting, Kelly asked Jessica to be her girlfriend.

We took a road trip from Connecticut to Tennessee—yes, for another concert. We rented a cabin perched high in the mountains, overlooking the breathtaking views of the Great Smoky Mountains in Gatlinburg. As sunset approached, Kelly had a plan in motion. She sent Jess outside the cabin under the guise of a FaceTime call with her best friend, who helped keep her distracted. Meanwhile, Kelly laid out 3,000 roses in a beautiful aisle pattern, hung a sign that read “Will you,” queued the music, and called out for Jess to come inside. With Dexter and Nell, our fur-babies, standing on either side of Kelly, Jess walked in. And in that moment—nervous, heart racing, hands shaking—Kelly asked Jess to marry her.
