Connect How did your love story begin?

Ethan and I met in high school in Phoenix, AZ. Ethan’s family had just moved from New Jersey and my family had just moved from Florida and somehow we both ended up at the same high school. We started out as friends, while in high school, but once we graduated, we realized we still wanted to spend every minute together.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

I think our wedding might be one of our best memories. It was a small wedding, in a small, beautiful town called, Cape May, in NJ. We only had 50 people at our wedding but they were all our closest friends and family. We also had our one year old daughter there, as our flower girl. I think our wedding was so, so special because I don’t think we really ever thought, being so young when we started, we would ever be able to pull off something so special and beautiful.

What would you do with $20,000?

I think we would choose to take the honeymoon that we never got to experience. Our daughter had been so young during our wedding and had a very serious case of “stranger danger”, that we never got to spend more than one night away and actually, to this day, with our daughters now being 10 and 7, we’ve never spent more than one night away from them and I think that could be something so special to experience, for our marriage and ourselves.
