Our Wedding

Noah's Version Yes that right we're an app couple, praise be to our Robot overlords.Starting off with an exchange of puns and DnD stories Noah and Sam decided to fatefully meet on a rainy day in a Starbucks since niether of them wanted to watch the Marathon. They talked about life, job goals, and taxes (Noah had his done, Sam did not) for a long time until Sam had to get home and finished her taxes and from there a romance for the ages was born.Noah first realized he was falling for Sam when as a second date they went to a social dance and Noah got reeeaalll f*cking jealous of Sam dancing with another guy (who since has become a good friend).True love was solidified over long distance as shortly after they got together, Sam went on a cross country tour, leaving Noah to have to learn how to use Zoom, and how to be apart from someone he loved.Shortly after Sam returned, Sam helped Noah move, and then move again so they could live together, only a few months before the world shut down. They supported and loved each other through the pandemic, and despite the hardship they stayed together and got eventully went stir-crazy enouhg to buy a house and adopt a dog together.Sam and Noah have continually pushed eachother to grow. With each of them become more ambitous in a attempt to out do the other. Noah providing a grounding stability to the house and Sam providing the big dreams they will be growing together for a long time. Hopefully with an increasing number of dogs.

Another Coffee Meets Bagel Success Story

Sam's Version:In April 2018, Sam was not looking to get into another relationship. In fact, she probably had no real reason to download or swipe on any dating apps considering she was going to be traveling for three months starting in June. This was not the best time to start anything serious.&nbsp;But for some reason, she found herself sitting in the Davis Square Starbucks at 9am on Marathon Monday (which also happened to be the day that taxes were due-- something Sam was nowhere near close to getting done) because this guy named Noah she traded puns with on Coffee Meets Bagel lived near the finish line and wanted a reason to not be there when it happened.&nbsp;What Noah didn't know at the time was that Sam was hungover. Sam didn't know at the time that Noah had a concussion. Neither of them were at their finest when they met, which made the next hour or so when they met even more surprising.&nbsp;They talked about their interests: for Sam, dancing. It turned out Noah was friends with someone from college that Sam knew. For Noah, it was improv-- specifically musical improv. Here's where the magic small world moment happened.&nbsp;Sam talked about the one musical improv show she ever went to. "There was this one character that stole the show," she smiled and started talking about the character animatedly. As she described the show's premise, Noah's smile faltered and turned more serious as it dawned on him. "I know exactly what show you're talking about," he said as Sam finished. "I was in that show… that character was me."&nbsp;Sam started yelling. "Whaaat?! That was you?!" Noah started yelling. "Whaaat?! You paid money for that show?!" Everyone in Starbucks was not happy that these two people were yelling and disturbing their peace.&nbsp;They decided to meet again later that week to go Blues dancing. And then they met again to go to Shitfaced Shakespeare. And then they had dinner at Rosebud's in Davis Square. And then they met up to cuddle together. And then they made dinner together. Despite the two of them having very busy lives (and Noah being aware that Sam was traveling for three months), they started spending a lot of time together.&nbsp;When it came time for Sam to plan and go on her trip across the country, she invited Noah to meet her in Detroit, her favorite city she almost moved to. Noah took a train and a bus to get out there and meet her in a coffee shop at 7 in the morning. They hugged and kissed with onlookers seeing their Romcom-esque meeting. Noah told Sam "I can already see why you like this city. This is great!"&nbsp;At that moment, Sam realized that Noah was going to stay for a long while, and they'll probably get married.&nbsp;For another five or so years, many hardships happened. Sam tore her ACL. A pandemic happened. They bought a condo and freaked out about money. They adjusted to life with a dog (Kissa, the best furbaby they could possibly ask for). They were there for each other through several personal and family hardships. Family passed away and ended up in hospitals. They did a lot of therapy.&nbsp;But they also found good in it all. They both grew together and made tons of jokes. Sam wrote a book. Noah built up a charity improv event once reopenings happened. They traveled together to self-development events. They joined a church in Somerville in line with both of their values. They went to Montreal for a weekend and brought Kissa along with them.&nbsp;In June of 2023, Sam and Noah both realized something: they had been through a lot. At that point, they truly believed if they could survive what they had so far together, they could survive anything. And there was no one else they wanted to go through it all with.&nbsp;One day that month, Noah suggested they have a nice relaxing date. Sam agreed. Noah then asked two things of Sam: one, if they could go to Wegman's and get a hot dinner and bring it to a park in Burlington to watch the sunset. Two, if Sam could bring this blue backpack he left at home that day. Sam had a strong creeping suspicion around noon when it all hit her: "I think I'm getting proposed to today."&nbsp;But by the time they went for the walk, they had passed several places that Sam deemed perfect for getting proposed to. Eventually, Sam wrote it off and decided to just enjoy that she could have this time with her love. Just before they got back to their car and as the sun was really starting to set, Noah asked Sam to stop for a moment. That was when he got down on one knee and pulled out something special to Sam: an engagement bracelet that she had wanted in place of an expensive ring.&nbsp;While it took some time to decide on a date for their wedding, they knew one thing they wanted: the entire process of getting ready for their wedding would be a joyful experience.&nbsp;Please join us for making it as joyful as possible for them!
