Kelli and Dylan met on January 14, 2022 at a bar in Leesburg, Virginia. Kelli was attending a work happy hour with colleagues and Dylan was doing the same. At around 9:00 pm, Kelli and her friends were getting ready to leave when she made eye contact with Dylan who was standing at the bar. Having previously noticed her, Dylan mouthed the words “don’t leave” from across the bar. Kelli approached Dylan on her way out the door, where they engaged in a quick conversation. She let Dylan know that he could join them at a different bar down the street if he was interested in doing so. Kelli left with her friends, wondering what might happen. A short time later, Dylan appeared and the two spent the rest of the evening getting to know each other. They went on their first official date the very next evening. Three years, two babies, a new house and engagement later, they couldn’t be more excited to put an exclamation point on their love story with a beautiful wedding on the eastern shore.
