How it all began

It started with a swipe…

“You’re cute”

— Kevin, October 2018

“Cute enough to convince you to grab a drink with me?”

— Julia, October 2018

Julia was temporarily working and living in Providence for “a few more months” post-grad, and Kevin was living and working north of the city.

Julia immediately loved that Kevin was spending his weekends in the outdoors kayaking (if only she knew*…) and uncharacteristically asked him out. Kevin agreed, suggesting two locations to grab a drink, only to be countered with an entirely different suggestion. While he nearly cancelled out of concerns that she would be difficult (if only he knew**…), curiosity got the best of him.

*kayaking was code for competitive fishing

**Kevin now admits Julia was right about the first date location (though she admits she can be difficult)

…and the rest is history…

‘I don’t know what it is that I like so much about him… but I want to find out’ — November 2018

Over the last six years we have had countless adventures and life changes: a year of long distance, new jobs, a cross-country move, lost loved ones, new family members (our two flower girls and ring bearer), and a puppy. Every day we continue to laugh, challenge, and learn from each other, and are grateful for a future filled with just that.

We can't wait to celebrate with all of you and have you be a part of our love story.
