Our love story has all the ingredients of a quirky rom-com, and you all know how much we love to tell a good story. Budding from a flirtatious friendship in the busy kitchens and back hallways of the Albany Marriott, our unexpected connection is one that makes us believe that everything truly happens for a reason and we were destined to share this life together. Jimmy has always dreamed of being an Executive Chef in the fine dining world, a goal he did achieve in September of 2024 (Woohoo!!) But even in the earliest stages of our relationship, Jimmy took the term "culinary pursuit" to a whole new level. He dedicated a full year to charming Bri with his witty banter and gentlemanly acts of sweetness, sending not-so-subtle hints by blasting her favorite music loud enough for her to hear in the service hallway (shoutout Sam Smith), before she finally said yes to that first date. Let's just say that wasn't Jimmy's most preferred genre of music in that stage of life LOL. Fast forward to June 30th, 2016, when we found ourselves at Corner Ice Cream in Guilderland, NY for our long-anticipated first date. What felt like 10 minutes ended up being 3 full hours of the easiest conversation either of us had ever had, and we have been inseparable ever since. 2 cities, 3 apartments, and 1 gorgeous angel kitty later, we are beyond ecstatic to be stepping into this next season of life together and are so grateful we get to celebrate the continuation of our love story with your presence!
