This is a story about how two Saugus, MA natives grew up together and ultimately fell in love. Paige Kennedy and Casey Orlando have a story unlike any other, but overall it's their favorite love story of all time. Paige and Casey met back in September 2005, sitting next to each other in Mrs. Ludwig's 6th grade science class at Belmonte Middle School. Although they were shy towards each other at first, they grew into good friends as the years passed.

What they didn't know was how they felt about each other. Casey thought Paige was pretty and Paige thought Casey was very sweet (and super cute!). During the course of 15 years, they never admitted these feelings but rather remained supportive and true friends. Paige and Casey enjoyed reuniting every summer at their friend Amanda's house, where they spent hours talking by the fire pit. They particularly enjoyed these summer nights surrounded by their lifelong friends.

Despite the distance, Paige and Casey continued to support each other through life's biggest milestones. Paige spent four years at Colby-Sawyer College pursuing a degree in nursing while Casey was spending this time at Wentworth Institute of Technology earning a degree in architecture.

After one big move back to Boston, many years of personal growth, and hundreds of Facebook messages later, Paige and Casey FINALLY went on their first date on February 25, 2018. They talked for so long at the restaurant, they forgot to order dinner! One month later, they made their relationship official on March 21, 2018 and the rest is history.

Since becoming a couple, they have helped each other grow as individuals and as a team. Between graduating with Master degrees, passing certifications and licenses, job promotions (at Boston Children's Hospital and JSA Design Inc.), competing in a dance competition, and even purchasing a home together in Tewksbury, MA on July 1, 2020, they did it all together. Their support and love for each other continues since starting in 6th grade science class.

Paige and Casey have filled the past 4 years of their relationship with many memories. They enjoy watching Bruins games in "Da Garage", dancing (in the ballroom and their kitchen), traveling, singing (not well) at concerts, bringing the Kennedy and Orlando families together, spending time with their amazing friends, shopping, planning their future, and sometimes just doing nothing together in their cozy little home.

From the first date, it was clear to Paige that Casey was the man she wanted to marry. Before they knew it on January 30, 2021 at Chatham Bars Inn, Casey got down on one knee and asked Paige to spend the rest of their lives together.

Paige and Casey are looking forward to watching their life unfold. They have dreams ranging from simple to extravagant, since they're both planners by nature. With their love, respect, communication, and teamwork dynamic, they are very hopeful for a beautiful life together.

The Future Mr. and Mrs. Orlando are eagerly awaiting for November 12, 2022! They cannot wait to celebrate their love and marriage with their dearest friends and family. Social!
