Our Wedding

Gab and Mark's paths crossed multiple times throughout their lives, but their love story didn't start until 2020 when they lived 2,000 miles apart. They originally met in college back in 2011, and both recall having crushes on each other. Did they ever tell each other? Absolutely not. They would run into each other in frat basements, but that was the extent of their friendship. There is only one, possibly two, pictures of them together from college. In 2015, they graduated and went their separate ways. Gab landed in Oregon while Mark stayed in Pennsylvania. One random Sunday, Gab received a message from Mark McCarrick on Snapchat. Knowing maybe five people in Oregon, Gab decided to entertain this message from Mark. It turned out they couldn't stop talking to each other, and Mark even made plans to visit. Then came the pandemic, and Gab moved back home, creating the opportunity for them to hang out in person. They went from hanging out weekly to Mark staying at Gab's house in Fishtown. Gab eventually convinced Mark to move to the city so they could be within walking distance of each other. Soon after, they got an apartment outside the city and adopted a dog to complete their family. After a year of walking Fiona around the complex, they decided to buy her a house with a yard. Everything else fell into place. While in a National Park, Gab's favorite place, Mark proposed. It was one of the happiest days of their lives, and they can't wait to spend the next happiest day with their loved ones.
