About the Couple

"Matthew and I met at a Manhattan bar, where his bold move of buying me a drink led to our first date at a restaurant named Florence, which I had told him was my favorite place. After a year of dating, life and frustration led to a two-year breakup, but we eventually gave love another chance. Matthew proposed three years later, and we planned a fancy white wedding. Due to COVID-19, we had to adjust our plans to be something more intimate. Despite everything, our dearest family and friends surprised us by showing up to support us in such a wonderful way. Matthew and I felt so loved as we began our journey as husband and wife. Since then, we have built a beautiful family with two boys, a cute dog, and a home in Rye, NY, in between our childhood homes. If I had to summarize our love story in a quote, it would be Shakespeare: “Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds.” True love conquers all!" - Erin
