In the summer of 2023, Tadhg was in Cambridge, MA, for a six-week course, learning Gemara (I mean, really, what else does he do?!). Ben had just finished law school and was studying for the bar. Tadhg spent the day with his sublettee, Eli, (a friend of Ben’s). Eli texted Ben at the end of the day to say that Ben just had to get a beer with Tadhg—a vision of Ben’s face kept appearing before Eli all day (Eli is a quite a spiritual person).

Ben was reticent—he didn't have time to be dating right now with the bar hanging over him and wasn’t keen on a long-distance thing (after all, Tadhg was only in Massachusetts for six weeks). But what could two hours and a beer hurt? Ben needed a break anyway.

Well, several beers and many hours later, the bartender finally had to kick us out. For the rest of the summer, we spent almost every free moment together, often into the wee hours of the morning.

The rest, so they say, is history. We continue to forge our shared story—one with endless love, much laughter, devoted friends, beloved family, deep commitment to mutual values, and so much more we have yet to imagine!

Join us to form our unique little community to witness, celebrate, and solemnify our love for and commitment to each other and to set the foundation for our new home with and in one another.

B'Birkat Ahavat HaTorah,

Love,

Tadhg & Ben
