OUR STORY

Learn about us!

Yup, this is where you learn a bit about how Jennifer and Wilson came to be. Our story is unique, just like all other marriage stories (Hey at least we admit cliches). We still want you to come celebrate with us, as each of you have played an important part in our tremendous lives together.

​

TL:DR - we met at a mutual friend's wedding, popped the question 3 years later, and we hope you come celebrate with us getting hitched.

HOW IT HAPPENED

As brief as I can make it!

THE IMPROBABLE MEET

Wilson met Jennifer at Pier 60, both lost at Chelsea Piers looking for our good mutual friend Tracie Lo's wedding, set on the Cruise liner Destiny. As the boat cruised lower Manhattan, Wilson was drunkenly brave enough to challenge Jen to a shot-for-shot challenge of Southern Comfort, in which Wilson was soundly defeated for the evening; so begun an unexpected love affair - It turned out that they have met each other long before that fateful day...

GREAT THAN THE SUM OF TWO

Jennifer and Wilson realized that they had met each other more than a decade ago, and lived no more than a 5-minute drive away from each other with a number of common friends. However, their differing professional schedules still meant much personal sacrifice and perseverance just to spend time with one another. Through time and grit, they learned to live and heal together through sadness, tears, love, and joy (And plenty of road trips!). It became plainly obvious to them that together they can bring more out of life than either one of them could alone. As Wilson and Jennifer continue to learn the kinks and quirks of one another; their lives intertwine as gears of clockwork - Wilson as her tick, and Jen as his tock.

THE ULTIMATE ASK!

The decision to ask was easy for Wilson, but keeping the plan secret for a month with his gang of Ninjas from Jennifer was no easy feat. After a nice dinner at Nakazawa for their 3-year anniversary, Wilson convinced Jennifer to revisit a special place, Pier 62 near where they had originally met, Jennifer complies with mild suspicion. and once they reached the end of a seemingly empty pier, Wilson closes his umbrella at the perfect moment, as the rain subside fatefully, he got down on his knee to surprise Jennifer with the ultimate question. "Will you marry me?" was promptly answered with a Jennifer-esque response of "Holy Shit, Yes!!". Wilson's best Ninja brothers (Ting, Winson, Jonathan, Wilson Lee), who witnessed Wilson's proposal from the bushes, uncloaks in joy, bearing flowers and popping champagne in celebration!

WHO'S JENNIFER?

Meet the bride.

On a workday, Jennifer is your neighborhood friendly pharmacist happily dispensing medication to make you feel better, and if you got close enough, a flu shot to keep you healthy. On a good day off, you will find her face glued to a book or an iPad browsing sub-Reddits in prone position. On a really good day, you'll find her with a game controller duking it out with the TV. Don't find her on a bad day with needles.

WHO'S WILSON?

Meet the groom.

If you don't find him working in his office or passed out on the train, you'll likely find Wilson tinkering with something, anything and everything from a VBA Program to a DeWalt hammer drill - because things can always work better (He hopes). Something always needs fixing and he's the vigilante fixer to save all from certain technological doom. Of course, the former always rings more true than the latter.
