Once upon a time, at Montclair State University, in the Fall of 2008, two extraordinary people embarked on what they thought was just a lifelong friendship. Tom and Krystine were two Greek life students who grew closer than family. They spent a lot of time together over the years going to concerts, summers in Belmar, Yankee games, and much more. 
  For Krystine’s birthday, in 2020, Tom cooked his famous meatballs for their tremendous group of friends in the Catskills, it was in this moment that Krystine exclaimed “I think I just fell in love.” The two were inseparable ever since.    On New Year’s Day of 2021, Tom made his Mom the happiest woman in the world by calling home to let her know “I have a girlfriend!” After a year of great dates, time spent traveling, and holidays spent with family, they decided to take their relationship to the next level. They moved into their own little place in Matawan, NJ June of 2022.
   Later in the year of 2023, Tom decided to ask Krystine the most important question of his life. Surrounded by all their closest family and friends, Tom took a knee at one of Krystine's most beloved locations, the Castle at Medieval Times making 11:11:23, a #KnighttoRemember and confirmed that she is his Queen and he her Majesty for a lifetime. 
  They began 2024 with a special trip and when they returned they began to plan their future. Wedding plans began, and they quickly started house hunting. Near the end of March, they closed on their own home. On June 9th, they welcomed Tony, the loyal hound, to live with them in the town of Middlesex, NJ.  
  As they continue to plan their wedding, and life together, their story is to be continued. No happy ending can be complete without celebrating the bond they share with their family and friends. These two love birds are already living in their Happily Ever After.
