Our Story

For starters, we met in March of 2008. Chris was living with his brother Ryan and cousin John at the time, and they often held bon fires in the back yard. Jennifer and her friends were invited over through a mutual friend of Ryan's and had so much fun that they kept coming for the bon fires. One night, Jennifer brought her guitar and impressed Chris with her playing and singing... and Chris impressed Jennifer with his awesome movie collection and projector. After chatting online for several weeks, we realized that we both had so much in common and started dating. We knew from the start that we had a very special relationship, and have been best friends and soul mates ever since. We just moved into our home in Roselle where we spent six months renovating by ourselves and with some help from family. We love doing so many things together— hiking, rollerblading, playing videogames, building things, and so much more. We are so happy and excited to spend our lives together and to see what the future holds for us.
