Eric and I met in preschool. We are best friends, we make each other laugh, and we celebrate our differences as much as our similarities❤️
We would like to thank you for supporting Bridget Wade and Eric Doane in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
Our friendship started over Legos in preschool. We grew up together in a small town north of Chicago. We dated (the first time!) as 14 year old 8th graders. After junior high we went on different paths. We both went to college, married other people, and started our own families. Bridget divorced in 2012 and Eric was going through his divorce when we reconnected in 2021 via a mutual friends facebook post. After a 5 hour phone call and watching the sun rise we knew the spark had never faded!
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Just one?! Whooo boy! We have narrowed it down to our very first vacation together, which was 2 nights at Walt Disney World Pop Century and 1 day park hopping to Hollywood Studios and Epcot, followed by a 3 night Royal Caribbean cruise on the Independence. Non stop fun and laughter, joyful like kids but with adult resources!
What would you do with $20,000?We would likely use it to help pay off our wedding and honeymoon (hopefully a Disney cruise on the Treasure!)
