After our first practice, Brian noticed Sydney across the cab ride home and asked one of the worst pickup lines in history, "Can I braid your hair?" Sydney, of course, said no. But after ten minutes of laughter and conversation, she realized he was funny—and cute, despite his 2014 Justin Bieber haircut. Fast forward a year of 4 am rowing practices, late-night study sessions, trips to Dairy Haüs, and one very important haircut (for Brian), and we realized we were obsessed with each other. On April 13th, 2015, we made it official! Now, ten years later—through two moves, four degrees, multiple jobs, a pandemic, and one cat—we're making it even more official. We are so happy you're here to celebrate with us!
