Anna and Joe have been in each other's lives for the past 9 years, thanks to Anna's cousins and Joe's best friends, Biz and Dave.

Their story began in Avalon when the two met at a fun-filled gathering by the bay. Anna asked Biz if she knew any eligible bachelors to set her up with and she immediately thought of Joe. When asked to describe Joe, Dave referred to him as a "young Santa". With a longtime love for everything Christmas (hence the couple's upcoming holiday nuptials), Anna knew she had to meet this dashing Kris Kringle.

Now 9 years, a house, and a French Bulldog later, this dynamic duo is ready to say I do!
