Gaby and Avery first met in a study hall during their junior year at Watertown High School. From there on out, they were friends... just friends, for many years. They graduated the next year, 2014, and went on to different colleges. Regardless, their friendship remained.

Through the next few years, they continued to go on many group vacations and outings with the same friends from back in 2014. It wasn't until 2020 (and a global pandemic), that Avery finally felt comfortable expressing hidden feelings for Gaby that he had been holding since high school. Little did he know, Gaby felt the same way. It was the perfect storm, and they officially started dating in the Summer of 2020. The rest is history!

In July of 2023, they purchased their first home together in their hometown. Becoming homeowners together proved to be one of the greatest decisions of their lives (just behind Gaby's decision to adopt two kittens, Ivy & Scarlett).

Gaby and Avery love to host friends and family at their home. In November 2024, during what seemed like a regular get-together with friends, Avery suggested walking to the center of Watertown for the annual Christmas tree lighting. It was there that he completely surprised Gaby and got down on one knee. Though in full disbelief that he surprised her that well, Gaby said yes on 11.29.24 surrounded by their closest friends and family.

That brings us here, to their wedding. After more than ten years in the making, they are finally saying I do!
