Our Wedding

Matt Spooner and Tessa Berry met in kindergarten when they were in Mrs. Murray and Mrs. Ross's classes. With the classrooms having a conjoining door, their classes did a lot of activities together, even though they didn't have the same teachers. Their classes did a play together at the end of the year in which Tessa and Matty both got the background roles of starfish. (Nobody ever said they had the talents for center stage) Matty's "Grammy" actually told his mom that she wanted to steal Tessa at the Thanksgiving feast that their classes had together, when they were sitting next to each other, because of how cute she was with her little blonde curls! (Who knew Grammy would get her way) They were never really in the same classes throughout their school careers, but were always within the same friend groups. Growing up, they played baseball against each other for years, and may have even been on the same team a time or two. Tessa and Matty hung out at Auntie Colleen's house with Kelsie and Brett, along with all of the end of school pool parties that Tessa and Raven hosted over the years. They loved going to Barrett's Haunted House in their middle school days, and now enjoy watching scary movies together on random weekend nights spent at home. Matty and Tessa went through high school staying friends, often goofing around in their hour long computer class together that neither one of them took seriously. It may have been the one and only class they ever had together, in which I'm pretty sure there was only about 7 people in the class total. I don' think either one of the them learned anything about computers that year. They dated other people throughout their school years, so don't go looking for their perfect high school prom photo. (You're going to have to settle for the starfish) They went their separate ways for college in 2016 after graduation from Carver High. A few years later, Tessa moved back home from Worcester and Matty was going to school at Curry College. They went on a few dates in 2019, especially around the time of camping season, as the "Sperrys" were camping together down Scusset Beach, but ended up staying friends. (Right person, wrong time I guess). 2020 rolled around and they started seeing each other more and more. Right in the height of COVID, Tessa went out for a few drinks and some dinner with Julia at Tavern on the Wharf and Matty offered to pick the girls up and drive them home that night to make sure they got home safe. Tessa knew at that point that Matty was the most selfless and kind man who really cared about her. And she really cared about him too. The rest is history. Tessa and Matty started dating June 14th, 2020 and haven't left each other's side each. The craziest part of the whole thing was that for years, people said that they were going to end up together, (even when they were dating other people) but they didn't think anything of it. They were just friends. Tessa and Matty are true soulmates that fit together like two pieces of a puzzle. Tessa is the one that is constantly all over the place and Matty is her perfect match to be there to bring the calm to every storm. He is so patient and always fixes any problem with a joke, which is exactly what she needs. I'm going to end this story with the fact that all along, the universe knew that Tessa and Matty were soulmates and wasn't going to let that go. So much so that after they booked their gorgeous wedding venue, they found out the the tent at Arch at the Meadow is a handmade "Sperry" tent. So with that being said, we'll see you at the Sperry tent on October 11th, 2025, when we officially join the Berry family and Spooner family as the Sperrys! - the future Mr. and Mrs. Spooner "The only thing that matters is that you, you make me happier than I ever thought I could be. And if you let me, I will spend the rest of my life trying to make you feel the same way." - Chandler Bing “In all my life, I never thought I would be so lucky as to fall in love with my best friend.” - Monica Geller
