Our Wedding

While living in Colorado, Rae joined online dating partly for her standup routine and partly with the hope of meeting someone special. Her traveling sales job meant she could widen her search to new cities — and maybe improve her odds of meeting a taller men. Meanwhile, Chris was searching in Minnesota for… well, we’ll let him tell that part. Rae got some standup material before she crossed paths with Chris — and instantly knew she was in trouble. He was interesting to talk to, easy on the eyes, and undeniably smart. It took Chris a little longer to realize he was in trouble too — about a year later on a trip to Ireland (ask us about the “Whippy scope” story). From meeting Evie, to visiting Colorado, moving away and coming back, finding a home, and adopting a dog… Chris eventually proposed like the history buff he is — in Gettysburg, PA. And I quote: “In a place where our country was able to start the next chapter, will you start a new chapter with me?” OKC = OkCupid, the dating site where it all beganIRL = In real life — internet slang for meeting face-to-faceMSP = Minneapolis–Saint Paul, our home airport
