Story

On our first date, we went for cocktails at One Eyed Mike's in Fells Point, which was surprisingly nice considering the name, perhaps nicer than Adam’s wallet had anticipated. Our date didn’t end there, and after belting out songs at Max’s Taphouse karaoke, we shared our first kiss on the corner of Aliceanna and Broadway while waiting for our rideshares. Jenna was attracted to Adam's humor, energetic personality, and easygoing attitude. Adam was attracted to Jenna's beauty, intelligence, and charisma. Needless to say, neither of us needed to go on any other first dates.

We've experienced a lot together; a flipped UTV, finger stitches, numerous weddings, loss of loved ones, more than one move, an unanticipated 7-mile hike, a major ankle sprain (unrelated to said hike), Redstripes in Jamaica, weekends in Bethany Beach, more O's and Raven's games than we can count, and daily chest snuggles with Wayne. Through all of our time together, we've managed to punctuate each day with laughter and love.

When we first began dating, Adam asked Jenna to be his girlfriend after a night out in Little Italy that was capped off with a cannoli from Vaccaro's. After nearly three years of dating, and more than one year of living together, Adam proposed in Little Italy, no thanks to the worst gnocchi Jenna had ever eaten, the promise of another Vaccaro's cannoli kept the momentum of the evening going. It was so special that Adam had brought our relationship full circle.

Tidbits

How did you first meet?

Who made the first move? How?

Adam went in for the kiss, quickly hopped into his ride-share, and went swiftly into the dark. Thus begins his story...the story of Batman.

Who's going to take out the trash?

Define taking out? Jenna walks it down the hall to the trash chute while Adam, leaves it outside the door for the trash valet to take it out!

What's your favorite activity together?

We can't deny that we love a good night out of bar hopping/live music/dancing, but we also enjoy a quiet Sunday in. Everything is your favourite activity when you are with the person you love the most.

French Polynesia - Mo'orea Tahiti and Bora Bora!

The most spontaneous thing we’ve done

With less than 2 hours notice, we scooped up 5th row Ravens tickets and ran down to the stadium to catch a very wet, afternoon game!

The dorkiest thing about us is

We watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy quarterly. Extended edition, of course.

We are regulars at

The Chausser, Pig and Rooster Smokehouse & DiPasquales Italian Market!

Getting Around

The BWI airport is just 20 minutes south of Baltimore City. Your best bet will be to Uber/Lyft downtown if you have an interest in visiting the place we call home. The MARC train can also get you into the heart of the city- take the northbound MARC out of the BWI train station towards Baltimore Penn Station.

We will provide a shuttle to/from our hotel to the venue, but if you prefer to get there on your own, it is approximately 15 minutes from the hotel.
