Liz Breen and Chris Ahern
August 18, 2018 • Princeton, MA USA
Our First Date
It all started with SnowJam. Both avid skiers and fun-lovers at Northeastern University, Liz and Chris first crossed paths as a result of Northeastern SnowJam, the annual Tremblant ski trip Chris founded at NU. However, it wasn't until after graduation that they really connected, with a little help from a friend...shout-out Niss! Through Nicole and a housewarming party in October of 2013, they quickly found themselves on their first date...quite the romantic night out in Boston followed by of course...
a ski movie premiere! The Best of Friends
The relationship these two have built over the last 5 years has been full of excitement and adventure from day one. Sparked by a love of travel and each other, Liz and Chris have taken their journey from Boston to California, Louisiana to Austria, Florida to Ireland, Maine to Alabama, and of course often to Vermont, where they've hosted a seasonal ski house together for the past four years. Not to mention possibly the most special of all, Georgia. In the meantime Liz has worked her way through Northeastern University School of Law and Chris has moved from travel to tech with his marketing degree.
The Proposal
In May of 2016, on another one of their grand adventures, Liz and Chris took off on a road trip together from Charleston, SC to Tampa, FL, hugging the beautiful Atlantic coastline all the way to Daytona. Along the way they found many special places including Savannah, Amelia Island, St. Augustine, and more, but there was one spot that particularly stood out to both: Driftwood Beach in Jekyll Island, Georgia. One year later, the morning after Liz's final law school exam, she found herself on a surprise trip back to Jekyll Island with an even bigger surprise in store. On horseback at sunset on Driftwood Beach, Chris asked the question she had been waiting for, and with a resounding yes they began the next phase of their journey together leading us to the exciting celebration in store this August.
