We are eloping!

Our story began on Instagram on April 1, 2021, where we instantly connected—thanks to our shared love for our dogs, Kirkland and Buster. What started as casual conversations quickly blossomed into something more, and before we knew it, we were in love. Soon after, we moved to New Jersey, where Jessica began her journey as a travel nurse. In September 2023, we took a big step and bought our first home in New Jersey. A year later, in September 2024, we got engaged! Now, we're excited to take the next step in our journey and celebrate our wedding surrounded by the people who mean the most to us. Thank you for being part of our story!

Dear Friends and Family, We are excited to announce that Joe and I will be eloping in Hawaii on December 5th! Our ceremony will take place at 4:30 p.m. Hawaiian time, and we would love for you to join us via a private live stream. You are receiving this invite because you mean something special to us, and we would be honored to have you witness this moment. Please feel free to share the live stream link with close family and friends, but we kindly ask that you don’t post it on social media. We want to keep this special day personal, so please only share it among those closest to you. With Joe being from New Jersey and me being from California, we didn’t want to place any strain on our families with travel or expenses. By having an online ceremony, we are able to celebrate with more of the people we love and adore. We also want to give a special shout-out to my grandparents, George and Gwyndolyn Koby, for always being there for us and for the love and care you’ve shown to both Joe and me. Your support means the world to us, and we are so grateful to have you in our lives. A heartfelt thank you also goes to Joe’s parents, Rose and John DiMeo, for their incredible generosity in helping us pay for this wedding. Your love and support have made this day possible, and we are so thankful. If there are any issues with the links provided, please feel free to text Jessica and she will send an updated link. The front of the invite contains the wedding website, and the inside has the live stream link. We can’t wait to share this special day with you! With all our love, Jessica & Joe
