Chelsey and Joe first met back in middle school and became close friends during high school when Joe would frequently visit his best friend, and Chelsey’s neighbor. They’d all have dinner at her parent’s home from time to time. Even though Joe said it was her Dad’s beer cheese soup that really reeled him in, these two couldn’t deny their connection and started dating! . . .

Jen is so easy to talk to and I could tell Kyle loves listening to what she has to say! Jen and Kyle told me that they originally met through Match.com, and they joked saying everything just "clicked" from there (aren't they cute?!). . .
Read MoreKristen was born and raised in Florida and the Everglades were one of her favorite places to visit. Matt grew up in Michigan and spent a lot of time in the woods as a hunter.
