Love Stories

McKenzie + Peter

In 2018, amidst the whir of industrial smoothie blenders, Peter followed a whim. He asked his coworker if she had any single friends. Lucky for him, she knew a spunky redhead who just might love Peter's poems and his sarcastic quips. She gave him McKenzie's number. 

On their first date — chai lattes at a local coffee shop — McKenzie fell off a chair. Full tilt, loud crash, the whole shebang. Peter didn’t know if he was ready for love, but in that moment, he knew she could make him smile. McKenzie left the date feeling cautiously, warmly, hopeful. 

In the years since, they've added a cross-country road trip through a hurricane, three college degrees, two disc-golf aces, a handful of writing publications, one good pupperino, and countless golden moments with those that love them best.
