Our Wedding

Sydney and Dan met in a pretty special way, at a bar in Wrigleyville in January of 2020. Not just any bar mind you, they met at the one and only Old Crow, a popular country themed bar right down the street from the Wrigleyville stadium. They immediately hit it off and ended up talking for a couple hours. However, there was one problem with that day. While they were caught up in the excitement of meeting each other for the first time they realized that they never got each other's information. Luckily, fate had a back up plan and they ended up matching on a dating app a few weeks after that night. Later going on their first "official" date to Dan's favorite bar, Houndstooth. That first date lead to many more dates which included dancing to their favorite 2000's music, eating at their favorite spots around the city, laughing together until they made those weird snorting noises, and going on exciting trips with one another. Soon enough they were smitten. In the spring of 2023, after 3 years of dating and 2 years of living together, they had all the proof they needed that they were made for each other.
