"Are you hungry?" (Gabe inquires)"No, I'm fine." (Brianna says politely even though she's starving and not expecting to order food on a first date)"...lets get some hummus." (Gabe offers knowing that she really wanted something)-------Post college and new to the DC area, Brianna and Gabe both reluctantly decide to try this new form of mobile dating. With encouragement from Brianna's sisters and Gabe's roommates, they both downloaded a new app, Hinge. Neither of them had reached out to anyone before and were only casually using the app for a couple of weeks before Brianna's big sister encouraged her to take a risk- "You have nothing to lose", she said. Michaela then drafted an e-mail (yes, you had to e-mail potential matches back in the day) to Gabe. Coincidentally, Gabe had planned to take that same risk and email Brianna the next morning. Instead, he woke up to:"Hey Gabe,I figured I had to email you since I've just been dying for a competitive hopscotch lesson. Is that really even a sport?No actually I think it's cool that you're into club tennis at JMU. I play tennis and am also a big runner now too. Maybe you could show me some of your skills on the court sometime!Let me know if you are around next week and we could meet up for a drink—or a Sprite since Hinge apparently dubbed that my new favorite beverage, haha.Take care,Bri"Excited and eager to meet, Gabe quickly (but not too quickly) responded with:"Hey there,Is it even a sport? Your only talking to a national champion here...not to brag or anything. Hah I have no idea howHinge came up with that for me.You actually beat me to the punch, as I was going to send my first hinge email to you myself. I would love to play tennis sometime! Did you play in high school or anything?Drinks sounds great to me and shouldn't be hard to set as it appears you live rather close by.Feel free to text me and we'll go from there-In the meantime, take it easy on the sprite there."(Insert all of your judgments about bad jokes, non-traditionalism, and stalking the proximity of how close a stranger lives here) After a few days of texting, the two finally met at American Taproom in Bethesda, MD. Two drinks, one serving of hummus and a loose agreement for a second date, Gabe walked Brianna to the metro and they were off on what would be the best three years of their life. Along the way- growing together as a team, learning a lot about themselves and developing a deep love for each other. Traveling to new cities, making new friends and joining two families into one, Brianna and Gabe have made so many stories together and can't wait to start a new chapter this fall.

My older brother, or as he would like to be called, "The Better Man", has always been there for me.  Even if that meant mooning me or punching me with his much stronger arms...But when it comes down to it, Zed is one of the most caring people on this planet and has turned into an amazing father and husband over the past few years.I couldn't be more proud of everything he's accomplished and hope I too can live up to the Kosowitz reputation! 

Zed Kosowitz

Oldest of the three Rossettie sisters, Michaela has always been our fearless leader. She showed us what being sisters really meant and reminded us how lucky we were to have each other. She is  my role model, my greatest advocate, and my best friend. Wherever she is there is sure to be excitement, laughter, aaaaand some incredible dance moves. I can't thank her enough for bringing out the zest in life and loving and supporting me always. 

Michaela Azemi

There is not a man that has been more influential to my success, happiness and well-being than my father.  He has guided me through life and has already taught me a lifetime of values and lessons (even though tying a tie wasn't one of them).  I'm proud to say he really is my best friend and couldnt imagine my wedding without him by my side. 

Erich Kosowitz

Amelia is the youngest in our trio and therefore  affectionately dubbed the "baby" of the family. We were always trying to teach her things like how to ride a bike (still working on that) or a new song on the violin. Really though, she taught us so much more about the type of sisters and women we wanted to be. She's genuine and creative, an incredible listener, giddy when you desperately need a laugh, and my  best friend. I am so fortunate to have learned how to love and care for someone so by being her big sister.

Amelia Rossettie

Friends since, well, birth.  Born in the same hospital just weeks apart, Kevin and I have bonded since day one.  From baby class to real life class-Kevin has always helped me navigate through the ups and downs. I'll never forget the day we finally had to separate and head off to different colleges. We quickly learned 180 miles couldn't keep us apart, nor will anything life throws our way.  An extremely well-rounded, down to earth and humble guy that I'm delighted to consider one of my best friends.

Kevin McCrory 

A true mentor in every sense of the word.  Jt has had a huge impact on my life even though we didn't become friends until half-way through high-school.  That day he got cut from the high school soccer team and decided to try out for tennis turned out to be one of the best things that's ever happened to me.  Jt has often paved the way for me whether it be to James Madison University or to morning heaven, aka the bogo, aka bacon egg and cheese bagels.  His ability to balance the problems and pleasures of life are unparalleled.

Jt Parker 

Growing up just a few blocks away from each other, my cousin Maria and I spent most of our childhood together. From sleepovers  and debating  which of us got Elvis when playing Barbies  to walking to school together and  family holidays, our childhood was one I'll treasure for the rest of my life. She's the first person to  celebrate with me in good times and is always there when I'm facing an obstacle. 

Maria Schimizzi

Maureen (Moe) is another cousin just up the street who has always been a mainstay in my life. We share countless childhood memories and when I moved to D.C. for grad school it was Moe that really made the city feel  like home. Whether it's Cherry Blossoms season, running the National Mall, brunching in the District, or a movie night on the couch, Moe and I  are always laughing together. So lucky to have such an incredible cousin and friend nearby and with me through everything.

Maureen Schimizzi

One of easiest guys to get along with.  Trust me, I'd know.  I lived with him all four years of college.  Some of the best times and lasting memories had Lee right by my side. Commissioner of the famous Madison's Monday Morning Quarterback's Fantasy Football League, Lee has many responsibilities and being a reliable go-to friend has always been one of them.  

Lee Winslow 

My first week at the  University of Rochester was admittedly a rocky one.  Enter: Tess Petersen (friendly blonde  girl across the hall).  From our first handshake, Tess and I quickly became the best of friends. We love farmers markets, taking incredibly  long walks, listening and dancing  to music, cooking/eating/hosting, and celebrating! Whether in Rochester, Scotland, DC, or Philly, some of the best times in life have been together. 

Tess Petersen

Jamie ("Juice") is the most dependable guy I know (withstanding his forehand which lost us countless high-school doubles matches).  If I ever need a hand, his is the first one there.  The heartbeat to many occasions, Juice is the friend you want there for the highest of highest and the lowest of lows.  A straight shooter who I know will always have my back, even when we both know I'm dead wrong.  (Which is rarely the case...)

Jamie Thomas 

When I first metGabe's older sister, Amy, I had no idea she would become my future sister-in-law. Kind, soft spoken, and genuine--I did know how much I enjoyed spending time with her. She's been so welcoming since the very beginning and I can't wait to officially call her family. 

Amy Charron

A best friend since kindergarden, Tom was always that guy to wish me happy birthday first.  The small things that many would often overlook Tom never forgot.  He often encourages me to go outside my comfort zone and take in all the world has the offer.  A truly kind and caring guy that will always be there whenever I'm ready for the next adventure.  

Tom Whitmore

The long awaited debut of the cutest ring bearer to ever hit the runway! My nephew Odin is so incredibly lucky to have my brother and his wife Megan as parents. It's amazing to watch him grow so quickly and learn new skills every day. He's certainly one cute guy I won't mind stealing the show on our big day.

Odin Kosowitz

Just under 2 feet tall, Adrian Teo has stolen our hearts with more personality and cuteness than we know what to do with! It's an incredible gift to have him as a nephew and we so enjoy watching him grow and explore the world. He's an experienced ring bearer, looking forward to dazzling everyone with his skills once again this October.
