Wedding Day

Our Wedding

Jessica and Robert met each other on Bumble. At the time Jessica was working nightshift as a nurse and Robert was working at his current job as a band director. Jessica can recall showing her coworkers his profile and thinking “He’s cute, he has a stable job, he would probably be able to withstand my nurse humor since he teaches.” So, she swiped right. Robert remembers thinking "She has a genuine smile and a good sense of humor.” Sure enough, it was a match. After some very pitiful message exchanges (their schedules very rarely cooperated), they set a date to get burgers and then go to a local BYOB arcade. The pair connected immediately and ended up going for drinks at BUS after she “beat him” at Street Fighter. By the end of the date Robert and Jessica knew they had found the one.

First Date... Kinda Nervous...

The couple had actually been looking at rings together and narrowed it down to 2 options. Jessica, unable to decide which one she preferred, left Robert in the store to pick. After leaving the store, she figured out which ring she wanted and went back to tell him. Little did she know, he had already picked the right ring. When Robert left the store, he had told Jessica he couldn’t get the one she liked and would have to wait until the next time the jeweler had an event to get it. Turns out, he did get it and just made this whole plan to take Jessica to the big tree in Rockport to "take pictures". It seemed suspicious to Jessica as Robert NEVER wants to take pictures but he played it off like he was doing it to “make up” for not getting the ring she liked because he felt bad (liar, liar pants on fire!). She bought the ruse and let it go. Tripod and phone in tow, Robert managed to check all the boxes in Jessica's "ideal proposal" list: just them, somewhere meaningful, and some way to capture the moment would, of course, be nice.

And she said yes!
