Sheryl and Jonathan met on Friday, August 28, 2015 in Washington, DC.

That night, they were celebrating the recent engagement of their friends Erica Strudler (Bridesmaid) and Isaac Snyder (Groomsman). Sheryl cooked dinner and Jonathan was late arriving because he stopped to get a haircut, a beer and a corned beef sandwich (he didn't know Sheryl was cooking).

Sheryl's first words to Jonathan were, "You're late. Can you say kiddish (ceremonial prayer for wine)?" and Jonathan responded, "Well, my parents funded about a quarter of a million dollars for a Jewish education, so I think I can handle that".

After some flirty banter and the clock getting close to striking midnight, Jonathan gave Sheryl his number. The next night after some initial resistance, Jonathan got Sheryl's number and they talked on the phone every day before their first date.
