\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
About 15 years ago, Vanessa and Kevin met through mutual friends Jenn and Kevin.\u00a0<\/span> Jenn and Kevin<\/span> were dating at the time; Vanessa<\/span> was Jenn’s roommate, and Kevin<\/span> was their unofficial roommate<\/p>\n

Kevin joined the group from time to time and Vanessa<\/span> and I instantly clicked with each other.\u00a0 They were Best Man and Maid of Honor at Jenn and Kevin’s wedding in Walt Disney World.\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
After the wedding, Kevin planned a trip to Death Valley with a friend. When he posted about it online,\u00a0Vanessa<\/span> commented that it was one of her favorite places too, so she joined in on that part of the trip.\u00a0 They spent a couple of days catching up, realized that things felt different than in years past, and proceeded to text nearly every day for a year.\u00a0 They returned to Joshua Tree a year later, shortly before Vanessa<\/span> had been planning to move back to the East Coast, admitted that they had feelings for each other, and decided to become a couple!!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Nate was so excited to fly to Providence for their wedding. Not only to hang with Jenn and Kevin again, but also to have an excuse to visit somewhere COLD! \u2744<\/div>\n
