Jeff and Yuri found each other on a dating app, Bumble. Little did Yuri know that was her last time swiping. The first date was at the Green Knoll Grill, in September 2018. Yuri is from Brazil and moved to New Jersey for an exchange program. Jeff is from Florida and moved to New Jersey for a career opportunity. After matching, they continued going out on dates, sharing their stories, experiences, talking about family, visiting new places, and making plans for each coming weekend. Jeff proposed to Yuri on July 4th, 2021. What a smart choice! It was a perfect sunny day, and Yuri’s closest friends were all there. That was important because Jeff knows how much Yuri values those people who became her second family here in the U.S. As a result, an afternoon full of joy and laughter, and a magical day that will never be forgotten. Yuri and Jeff got married on September 24th in Hillsborough, witnessed by her friends Edna and Dan and Jeff’s aunt Holly and uncle Scott. A simple, yet lovely ceremony surrounded by loved ones whose support is greatly appreciated. The event was followed by a Mini Honeymoon in Baltimore. After the couple checked into the 5 star hotel, they had a lovely surprise waiting for them from Jeff’s mom Michele. Thank you so much Michele for making it even more special. Yuri and Jeff have been together for almost 4 years since that first date, and they’re proud to say that they found each other on a dating app. A lot has happened, as we know, making it impossible to have a party back then. Thus, the big celebration will happen in November 2022, when the couple will have the chance and honor to share their happiness with all friends and family. Looking forward to seeing you there!
