Our Story...

Lenny and I first met while in our Senior year at Siena College in our capstone class. Our professor created a complex test to assign groups. I did not want to be with Lenny because he was the type of person who showed up late to the first day… with Starbucks. To my luck, we ended up together. Lenny proved his “wing it” ideology, and we formed a strong bond and fell in love (Shoutout to Professor Mike Hickey!)

In 2015, we graduated from Siena and moved in together. More importantly, we ended up adopting our bunny, Crowley. Our family of three moved back to my childhood town of Saratoga Springs, meaning our down time is spent trying all the downtown bars and restaurants, and testing our luck at the track!

Six years later, Lenny proposed to me in our favorite town of Ogunquit, Maine on the Marginal Way Cliffs. We constantly joke about our “bad luck,” but both of us never take for granted how lucky we were to end up in that group. Saratoga Springs became our home, and we knew it was the perfect place to bring family and friends together to celebrate our marriage. We viewed a number of venues, but the Hall of Springs stole our heart. The reflecting pool within the park and the architecture are iconic – perfect for a dream wedding!

Our wedding day would not have been special without all our incredible vendors, family, and friends. We are truly thankful for you ALL!

Advice

TO PASS ALONG...

• Try not to overthink the process and make things easer on yourself. This day is meant for you and your significant other, so make that the special moments to focus most on. And just breath... I get super nervous prior to anything focused on me (presentations, speeches, my wedding day, etc.) It is ALL worth it in the end.
