As newlyweds, you and your spouse will most likely be making important financial decisions and investments, many of these for the first time. As unromantic as it may sound, finances can play a huge role in how successful and happy your marriage will be. It’s no secret that arguing over money puts a huge strain on a relationship, but understanding how to protect these big purchases can help start...
How did you meet? We actually were first introduced to each other back in 2006 through a mutual friend. We had run into each other throughout the years, but we were always off in different directions. Anthony then made the first move, by sending a FB message in 2015 to ask how I had been. We had met up one weekend out at a local bar, went on a date the following day and we knew it was meant to be...
You’ve done everything in your power to avoid it. You’ve come up with excuses, little white lies, and even used up your “I won’t be in town” card more than once even though we both know you ordered in Pizza Hut and watched Game of Thrones for the tenth time. But the time has come, and you’ve been selected to host this year’s Thanksgiving dinner. One of the most important family...
How did you meet? Danny and I actually met online. It’s silly to think back on now. I had just moved from California and Danny just moved back to his Hometown Wimberley, TX. We were both at the time NOT looking for anything serious and 5+ years later we’re married. He was very persistent when we were started texted one another. I was caught off guard by his wanting to be a gentleman and get to...
How did you meet? At a party Columbus Day weekend 2011 at Babson College! He was a senior at the time and I was a junior. He was captain of the hockey team and I was on the volleyball team. Campus is usually empty since it’s a long weekend and everyone leaves, but because we were both in season we had to stay on campus. The hockey team had a party that I went to with some friends and the rest is...
No matter who you are or where you are in the world, seeing the world is a must. Other than expanding one’s horizon, traveling is important because it provides you with a better perspective on life, on how other people are living. You get the chance to see new things, change your mindset, ideate, observe, and educate yourself on the place’s culture, food, people, and history. Are you...
How did you meet? We met in 2008 at a local ice cream store in the town I grew up in. My best friend was dating someone who worked there and he was friends with my husband who happened to be at the ice cream store that night visiting. We had stopped by on the way home from the gym and never thought he was even remotely interested in me. But, on the way home my best friend got a text asking for my...
How did you meet? We met through a friend at a concert at Antone’s (local Austin, TX venue). First or favorite date? Any live music! How did he propose? Our dog was dressed in a tuxedo, rose petals leading up the stairs and there he was all dressed up with flowers and a ring! Most difficult part of wedding planning process? Registering! How did you decide on a wedding venue? Our venue, Mercury...
What is it about food that makes it so important and necessary for every celebratory occasion? Other than the fact we need food to live, there are a lot of psychological reasons on why we eat. A lot of times, we eat when we’re sad, happy, and nervous. At times, we eat simply out of boredom! The great thing about food is that there isn’t just one kind. The types of cuisines around the...
How did you meet? We met in college, over summer break we were both working at an ice cream store (Bruster’s) and it was magic ever since! First or favorite date? Although we had many unofficial first dates, our official first date was to Olive Garden (I know, so cheesy) and to the movies where we showed up late and were forced to sit in the front row and break our necks looking at up at...
