The Beginning

Our Story

Our journey began at a bar in the East Village and slowly grew into something more — quiet coffee breaks during workdays, slipping out from our offices across the street from one another, and the easy rhythm of becoming part of each other's everyday. From there, it unfolded into shared friends, overlapping experiences, and the surprising discovery that our families already knew each other. We met the first month we both moved to New York City after college — and the rest is history.

We're so pleased to have you join us on this journey, and on our special day.
