WellWed in New York

For Elizabeth Van Epps and Daniel Mitchell, the third time was definitely the charm. They first met on a shared
ride to Upstate New York from Bucknell University, where they were both freshmen. Beth’s outgoing and animated nature didn’t exactly mesh with Danny’s thoughtful reserve, and conversation—if any, was strained. The second time they met, Danny was dating the girl who lived across the hall from Beth. Danny swears that Beth didn’t even remember him, but Beth explains that the truth was simpler: She just didn’t want to remember him.

When Kristyn Keener and Mitch Schrager joined the New York City Teaching Fellows Program during graduate
school, they learned as much about love as they did about the responsibilities of being an educator. Throughout the challenges of first-year teaching, Kristyn and Mitch looked to each other for support, and by the time Christmas vacation rolled around, the new teachers were inseparable and happily in love.

When two people with large, tight-knit families join together, you can almost guarantee there will be a
celebration to remember. The wedding of Bridget Nappi and Christopher Rodecker was no exception.

When Bob Sullivan proposed to Krista Duell , on an early-morning beach stroll in Cancun, she was the only
one taken by surprise. Bob had already asked Krista’s dad for his approval and had leaked the news to several of their friends.

Krista and Bob had made the trip to Mexico to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Krista’s best friend and her husband, and since the friend was the person who introduced Krista and Bob in the first place, there was no way anything—even Krista’s dislike of air travel—could keep Krista and Bob from being part of the festivities.

Perhaps it ’s because Jengi Mlynarski and Tom Reilly became involved while working as lab partners in human anatomy and physiology at Broome Community College that the two have mastered the science of love.
