Who could have imagined that a first kiss in 7th grade would lead to forever? Yet, here we are, celebrating the future Mr. & Mrs. Keegan.

Christiana and Mitch’s story began long before they could have known where it would take them. In 7th grade, they first connected through AOL Messenger and MySpace. They were friends in high school, but it wasn’t until the spring of 2017, when they both graduated from Springfield College, that their bond deepened into something more.

After college, they ventured beyond Massachusetts, starting a new chapter in Arizona. There, they embraced fresh career opportunities, formed lifelong friendships, and traveled to new places—each adventure bringing them closer. Arizona became a turning point in their relationship, a place where their love blossomed and strengthened.

Eventually, they returned to their New England roots, settling in Portsmouth, NH, where their love for each other, the outdoors, and exploring new horizons continues to grow. Together, their journey has been filled with joy, laughter, and an easy sense of fulfillment. Few are fortunate enough to marry their childhood best friend, and for Christiana and Mitch, this is only the beginning of their forever.
