Our Wedding

It was the beginning of the 2023 school year, Joe walked into the staff lounge, and there stood a smile and a voice that caught his attention. “Who’s this?” He says to himself. Throughout the month he watched that smile, in her Ms. Frizzle outfits and extensive earring collection, interact with staff and children each time capturing his attention more and more. “We’re at work, we don’t date people at work...” Months go by and conversations are exchanged. "Man she’d be perfect“ Joe thinks to himself. October roles around and a simple compliment sparks Nicole’s interest. As the month goes on and they exchange more conversations Nicole blurts “And that’s why I’ll never date another Italian ever again..." There goes Joe's chance. A few weeks after Joe asked god, “God can you send me someone, I’m tired of these damn apps, their useless..” And a few days later around Thanksgiving some divine intermeddling occurred.&nbsp; Friends began investigating to see if the feelings were mutual, and by the time Joe found out they were, it was December. One December night Nicole and Joe were discussing the tree and Joe said “ If I go I’ll take you with me!” Left on read for what seemed like hours, Nicole replies “ ok!”&nbsp;&nbsp; Before Joe and Nicole’s first date could transpire, they made a tiny debut together at their holiday work party where they share their first kiss goodnight, a kiss that foretold the story that was about to unfold.&nbsp; Now ‘twas the night of December 16th, 2023, Joe and Nicole drove down to the city for dinner and a Christmas stroll to the Rockefeller tree. That whole night stood still for Joe and Nicole, engulfed by the feeling of a familiarity that had been lost and found once again. Every date after only strengthened their relationship and by month 3 Joe knew he was going to buy a ring and on month 7 he did. Fast forward to October 4th, 2024, after months of planning, Joe took Nicole on a hallmark weekend in Ogunquit, Maine. After hours of apple picking , museums, coffee shops and shopping they make their way to the harbor to “catch the sunset” where Joe planned to propose to Nicole with the help of a photographer to capture the moment.&nbsp;“What the hell is she doing” Joe exclaims towards the photographer to throw Nicole off. Joe asks the photographer to take a picture using his phone and when his knee hits the ground Nicole stares in shock only to utter yes of course. As we prepare to embark on the next chapter of our love story, surrounded by the warmth of December and the promise of forever, we are filled with gratitude for the unexpected paths that led us to one another. Our love is a testament to the magic of fate and the power of connection, and we can't wait to continue writing our story together, one laugh, one moment, and one "I love you" at a time. Join us in celebrating the start of forever, surrounded by the love of family and friends, as we raise a toast to the beautiful journey that led us to this moment.
