Our Story...

Nick and I met in the fall of 2017 on Hinge. Our very first conversation was about buffalo chicken, which is still a shared obsession! We soon realized we had lots of mutual friends. I even texted one before our first date to make sure Nick was a good guy, and he passed with flying colors.

Our first date was at a wine garden, and it was incredible. That night, Nick told his roommate (who happened to go to high school with me!) that he was going to marry me. About a month later, we made it official.

Since then, we've built a wonderful life together full of laughter, travel, and our beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Paddington. We love being out and about with friends and spending time in our favorite places, like Nantucket and Saratoga.

Nick proposed at The Sagamore in Lake George in August 2023, completely surprising me. When planning the wedding, we wanted something classic and beautiful, with only our closest loved ones there, no first-time introductions. Privacy and a personal touch were key and the Gideon Putnam was the perfect fit.

We brought in a Nantucket-inspired feel with blue and white tones and lots of hydrangeas. The venue was elegant, the energy was joyful, and the dance floor stayed packed all night. We felt so incredibly loved and surrounded by exactly the people who make our life so special.

• Advice to Pass Along •

Choose a wedding venue that has a backup rain plan that you love. This will help alleviate stress leading up to the wedding day. We chose our venue because we loved the option to be able to take photos outside, even in the rain. Leading up to our wedding the weather forecast kept getting worse by the day. There was even a flood warning on our wedding day. However, I did not worry about it because I knew the day and photos would be beautiful no matter the weather.
