Our story began on a hot summer day in Troy, New York during August of 2015. Christine came home to her sorority house when Andrew was with his fraternity brothers dropping off chocolate covered treats. Christine was the first to walk over covered in sweat from a run, and said "these are good." This little interaction inspired Andrew to reach out to one of his friends in her house, ask about her, and then arrange to be in the kitchen cooking when she was there. It worked. Christine passed through the kitchen that day and Andrew offered her some of the Chicken Francese he made. Christine ended up having five servings of it. She only stopped there because she thought 6 servings was too much.

Life following undergraduate college lead us on many new adventures. In 2017, we moved into our first apartment together in Ridgewood, NJ. In 2019, we bought our first house together in Warwick, NY and since then we have been making it our home. We've been fortunate to take our adventures around the world. Together we explored the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland, hiked a canyon river in Arizona, ate pounds of pasta in Italy, snacked on baguettes in Switzerland, drove a manual car (with only an hour of practice in the US) through France, and on January 30th, 2020, Andrew got down on one knee and proposed next to a quiet canal in Bruges, Belgium.

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”

August 21st, 2021 holds our next great adventure. This is the day our two hearts become one. We are so excited to celebrate this big day with you and all of our loved ones. Cheers to our next chapter!
