Our Story

We like to say we met the old fashioned way, at a bar...twice. It may have taken two chance encounters, separated by months and boroughs, to finally bring us together, but it was always love at first sight(s). And as the saying goes, "love is worth waiting for." 

The Catskill Mountains are very special to us - hiking Overlook, skiing Belleayre, tubing the Esopus, and spotting eagles, bears, and chipmunks. We couldn’t think of a better place to celebrate. We look forward to raising a glass on August 5, surrounded by friends, family, and the mountains we love.
