Jay and Samantha’s love story began when they were just 14 and 15 years old—Samantha a freshman and Jay a sophomore. It was at a freshman party where their paths first crossed, a moment neither of them expected would turn into something that would last a lifetime. Back then, their relationship started with nothing more than text messages and a casual expectation that it wouldn't go beyond a few weeks. But here they are, nearly 10 years later, ready to share the same last name.

Throughout high school, they created lasting memories together. While Jay played football, Samantha cheered for Stamford High, and later cheered him on at basketball and baseball games. In college, she continued to cheer him on as he played, supporting him every step of the way. Their bond only grew stronger with each passing year, and they eventually graduated side by side at Central Connecticut State University—a true reflection of the partnership they had built over the years.

From early days of "just texting" to dog-parenting and growing up side by side, Jay and Samantha have built something truly special. Now, after almost a decade together, they’re more excited than ever to celebrate this moment with the people they love most.

After all the years, the memories, and the laughter... LET'S GET MARRIED!
