If you've come to the "Our Story" section of our website hoping to read a classic meet-cute story, like "As Hannah and Jay simultaneously reached for the 2% milk, they locked eyes, and at that moment in the middle of the South Boston Stop & Shop, time froze." well, we hate to break it to you, we met on Hinge. (For our older guests, Hinge is a dating app.)

While, ultimately, an algorithm helped us meet one another, this encounter was already written in the stars.

Before meeting on Hinge, we were both signed up for the same improv comedy class at the Improv Asylum in the North End of Boston. And if we are talking about fate, or the universe always working in your favor, then some higher power must have stepped in to prevent us from seeing one another attempt improv comedy for the first time. Because if that class happened, we probably would not all be gathering in The Outer Banks together.

So thank you fate and thank you algorithms because the second we met for our first date on Carson Beach in June of 2020, it was always inevitable that we would be here.

We've been inseparable since the beginning. Spending as much time together as possible, going on fun and adventurous trips together like The Netherlands and Norway, going on bizarre and ambitious trips together like attempting to bike from Wilmington, NC to Jacksonville, FL, our love grew strong and fast. Ultimately this bloomed into moving to North Carolina and beginning to build a beautiful life together accompanied by our crazy elderly pets Professor Stinkpot, Lucky, Mia, and Kit Kat.

A huge part of our story is all of the incredible people in both of our lives and we are so excited and fortunate to bring you all together to experience this beautiful celebration of our love.
