Our Wedding

We met during a weekly beer pong tournament at the Bound Brook Hotel. Across the room, our eyes locked—just a quick moment, but one we’d both remember. Later that night, as Dennis was leaving, he passed by, simply said “goodnight,” and walked out the door. But he didn’t just leave. He sat in his car, watching from a distance, until I started walking toward my own. Thinking I might be heading home on foot, he did a suspiciously sweet thing—circling the roundabout to make sure I was safe. Once he saw me get into my car, he drove off without a word. Not long after, my phone lit up with a Facebook message from Dennis, asking me to be his partner for the next week’s beer pong tournament. And that’s when it all began. It took a lot of encouragement—both from me and from his friends—before he finally agreed we should officially start dating. A year and a half later, he gave in, and the rest was history. Now, nine years later, after countless adventures, laughter, and love, we’re finally tying the knot!
