Our Wedding

Jess & Zach 

Jess and Zach grew up in the same hometown of Swampscott, MA where they worked as camp counselors together at Park League. Jess and Zach's friendship grew as they continued to attend engineering school together at Carnegie Mellon University. By their junior year they were inseparable and went on their first date to see the movie Sully together. Zach officially asked Jess to be his girlfriend in 2017 after they had both graduated from Carnegie Mellon. Jess and Zach spent as much time as possible together while Zach took a job in New Hampshire and she stayed behind in Massachusetts working locally. Soon enough Zach came back to Massachusetts and he and Jess adopted their first (fur) baby, Sully (in honor of their first date). Their little family of three moved into their first home in Malden in 2022. After 7 years of dating Zach decided to make it official and proposed to Jess in August 2024 at a beautiful Swampscott beach, a place the two spend endless hours in the summer. Jess and Zach can't wait to tie the knot next summer!
