Reception

Our Wedding

It was late June 2023, and like all great fairytale romances, we met on Hinge. After bonding over how hot a young Joe Biden truly was, we locked in the coveted second-date plans before we had even finished our pizza. It truly is just like everyone says—when you know, you know, and we knew by the fourth date. By the end of July we were officially "boyfriend/girlfriend," and by January of the next year we had moved into our first apartment in Harlem. Just us, one mini Labradoodle and FOUR cats. By July of 2024, after returning from a trip to Germany specifically to see the Eras tour, we found out that we were pregnant with our darling Clementine, who was born in April of 2025. Oooh, and we got engaged in March of 2025, less than a month before becoming first-time parents! We went to Club Beach at Lake Naomi on an absolutely freezing day to watch the sunset, and there, Austin got down on one knee and asked Sam a question that was nothing more than a formality, because, by that point, we had already been each other's family for what felt like forever. We view our wedding day as a chance to eat, drink, and be merry with everyone we love. It's a celebration of pure joy. And our only guiding principle for every decision we make about it is: Will this be fun? Which is exactly how we live every day together. Come have fun with us!
