Our Wedding

Sean and I are the rare story these days -- we were actually set up by friends! My friend Alex, who I met at Elon, and her late husband Josh were always looking to set me up. Sean played golf with his Bentley friends and Josh every Saturday and they got to know each other well. For our first date we met up in Cambridge for drinks, and then I dragged him to my favorite drinking hole Cantab Lounge for dancing. That was late 2019. We lost touch in the chaos of covid, and reconnected (he slid into my DMs) in the summer of 2020. Sean moved back into the city that winter, and lured me over to his new place in the Seaport with the promise of a new shipment from a wine club, and the rest is history!

Chef Andrea is the best! We have been cooking with him for years and he is a wonderful teacher, chef and friend! We would be happy to set up a lesson if people are interested. He only does small groups, so let us know!
