Our Wedding

We were both members of the bridal party in the wedding of our respective friends, Tim and Jenn, who got married in&nbsp;July 2015.&nbsp; At Jenn’s bachelorette party, Catherine casually asked her if Tim had any cute, single groomsmen.&nbsp; Jenn immediately thought of Greg, who at the time was stationed in the Army at Fort Bragg in North Carolina but was able to come home for all of the wedding events.&nbsp; After Tim and Jenn showed us pictures of the other (we both approved), we spent a week nervously anticipating the wedding, when we would get to meet in person.&nbsp;



The night of the rehearsal dinner, Catherine, who was quite anxious to meet Greg, overcompensated for the nerves with many (many, many) glasses of prosecco.&nbsp; Miraculously, Greg was somehow charmed by “Kitty” ;-)&nbsp; We will forever be grateful to Tim and Jenn for bringing us together, and we can’t wait to have them share in our special day as members of our own bridal party.





















Greg left the Army a month after we met and moved home to begin grad school at Suffolk University in Boston.&nbsp; We spent the next year and a half driving back and forth on the weekends from Greg’s house in Rockland, MA to Concord, NH, where Catherine lived and worked for NH Governor Maggie Hassan.&nbsp; In 2016, Governor Hassan ran for a seat in the United States Senate and won. &nbsp;Catherine was lucky enough to stay on her team as the now-Senator’s Director of Scheduling in Washington, DC.&nbsp; Greg, with a Master’s Degree in Criminal Justice, agreed to move with her to DC without hesitation and landed a job as a Police Officer with the Metropolitan (DC) Police Department.&nbsp; Our&nbsp;adventure is ongoing - we recently got a dog,&nbsp;a German Shepherd named Raven,&nbsp;and&nbsp;bought our first home in Bowie, MD!

Let's Go Back to the Beginning

Fast forward to June 2019, when we took a vacation to the Outer Banks in North Carolina to celebrate Greg’s birthday and our four year anniversary.&nbsp; On our second night there, Greg suggested we have some wine and cheese before heading to dinner.&nbsp; Catherine, being perpetually hungry, told Greg to get it out while we were getting ready.&nbsp; However, he insisted we wait until we were dressed so that we could “bring it outside to enjoy on the deck”.&nbsp; Not thinking anything of it (even though Greg had brought along an expensive bottle of wine that Catherine’s mom had gotten us to drink on a special occasion), Catherine went along with his plan.&nbsp; Sitting outside on the roof deck, enjoying each other’s company and the gorgeous&nbsp;sunset, Greg got down on one knee and popped the question!

We are so excited to celebrate this next chapter of our lives with our families and friends!&nbsp;
