Our first "date" is a story for our matron of honor, Ciara, to share since she claims credit for officially setting us up. Our entire story feels serendipitous to say the least, but we met when Ciara invited Mark to a Phillies game and conveniently had our seats next to each other.
Our early days of dating were featured in the adorable area of East Passyunk in South Philly. Walking, exploring, coffee trips, and dinner dates made for an exciting number of months in South Philly!
Our first trip together was off to the West Coast to explore and drive our way up the Pacific Coast Highway! We explored everywhere from Los Angeles, the small beach towns, Yosemite National Park, Napa Valley, San Francisco and more. It was a magical week filled with lots of laughter and a solidified sense that we can in fact "travel together".
In December of 2022 we made the jump and bought our first home together! We have spent countless weekends, with the help of our family and friends, renovating, painting, and making this house a home!
Ireland is a very special place to both of us. Home to one, and a second home to the other. In May, 2023, Mark and Aisling got to explore and experience Ireland together! They enjoyed celebrating Mark's sister, Tara, and Adam's wedding.
