After living a mere 5 blocks from each other for more than two years, Emily and TJ finally met at the East Village's finest establishment, the Penny Farthing, on a snowy February night in 2015. After quite a few cocktails, TJ accidentally bumped into Emily while showing off what he thought were his sweet dance moves. Upon turning around and seeing a beautiful girl with an outright look of disapproval, TJ knew he had an uphill battle. However, TJ was able to overcome his lack of dance skills and coordination to secure a first date where the new couple bonded over their mutual love of family, friends, life goals, and an overall dislike of cats.
Now, after spending the last three years dancing together across New York City, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, Emily and TJ are set to be married in Emily’s hometown of Hershey on September 22, 2018. And what a wonderful thought it is that some of the best days of our lives haven’t happened yet.
