On a cold Wednesday evening, Rachel was hanging from the top of a rock climbing wall when she looked down to see a cute curly-haired blonde man below her. She called out, "Jeff!" and he looked up at her smiling.

She said, "Hi! I'm Rachel."

He said, "Hey Rachel. What's going on?"

She gestured around her as she swung around in her safety harness, "Oh, you know, just hanging!"

If you asked Jeff to tell this story, he would say that was the exact moment he fell in love.

Rachel and Jeff met rock climbing through a mutual close friend, Lauren, in 2015. They were both looking for different things at that time, but Jeff was persistent. Using his charming smile and twinkling blue eyes, he eventually persuaded Rachel to go on a date with him, over Valentine's Day weekend no less... and they have been together ever since.

Before Jeff met Rachel he was afraid of two things: dogs and vegetables. A vegetarian and avid dog lover (with a big opinionated dog, Douglas) Rachel taught Jeff how to overcome those fears. Before Rachel met Jeff, she refused to separate whites from colors and was unsure how to be patient. While she can't say either are 100% better at this point, there has been definite improvement thanks to Jeff!

Those who meet Rachel and Jeff agree they are complete opposites from each other, but there's a reason why yin and yang are so popular around the world: sometimes exact opposites are truly perfect.

They are so excited to celebrate their engagement and upcoming nuptials with all of you.
