Our Wedding

Kasey and Jeff’s story begins in 2018. A group of marines walked into The Rocking Horse Saloon in downtown Hartford after attending their annual Marine Ball. Luckily for Kasey, Jeff had gone with a group of friends that year (leaving him available for mingling). Shortly after meeting, they got to know each other better and were seeing each other for a few months. Unfortunately, Jeff had shared the news that he would be leaving for his deployment overseas to Afghanistan for 9 months in early 2019. At that point, they had become each other’s “what if” person. They promised to reconnect in the future upon his return, if the timing and the circumstances were right. It didn’t take long for Jeff to reach out to Kasey when he got back home, and she was thrilled to have gotten a second chance with this special person. From the first time they reconnected, they couldn’t imagine life without one another. After about a year of dating, they started their lives together in their first home. Since then they have been building their lives, their careers, and countless memories together. Jeff seamlessly took on the most important role of all, “dog dad” to Kasey’s beloved pooch, Bean. The day that Jeff proposed, Kasey had just been on a week long trip to Florida with her mother. Moments after she arrived home she noticed the flowers, “Paper Rings” by Taylor Swift playing, and Bean with a large pink bow on his collar. The surprise of a lifetime then unveiled as Jeff asked for Kasey’s hand in marriage. Now, they look forward to getting married at one of their favorite date night spots, Amarantes Sea Cliff, which is just a short walking distance from their shoreline home. They can’t wait to celebrate this beautiful love surrounded by their closest friends and families!
