How We Met

Love of Dogs, Beer, and Trivia

Like most modern couples, our story began online. Almost five years ago, while the Matron of Honor was in town for the Bride’s birthday, she stage-managed the start of it all by insisting the Bride give Facebook Dating a shot.

We quickly bonded over our dogs, a shared love for trivia, and a good local sour beer, making Kinship Brewing the perfect first-date spot. We didn't win trivia that night, mostly because the Bride was convinced the "Garden of the Gods" was located in New Jersey (you know... the Garden State). We lost the game, but we definitely won the night. The rest is history
