Michael and Laura’s story began as freshmen at Wesleyan University, at an underwhelming event called "Shmooze with the Jews." Michael was there because he’s a Jew who wanted friends, and Laura was there because her Jewish guy friends claimed there would be ice cream (and as they put it, “We need girls”). Eyes locked from across the room, but no plans were made to meet again. Three weeks later, Michael and Laura shared their first kiss at a Jersey Shore party at the fine fraternity known as Beta (since banned from campus). One and a half years later, Michael and Laura went on their first date. Almost a decade after that, in Laura’s words: “I met a guy freshman year of college, he never stopped bothering me, and now we’re getting married.” On May 14, 2021 we finally got married with a super cute ceremony in Virginia with our families. Even though we're married now we would still LOVE to celebrate with you!
