Jeff for America

One of my closest friends through the years just got engaged a few weeks ago, and I’m all a jitter. The story of Diana and Harry is actually quite an old one. They met nearly five years ago this summer, in a hostel in New York. Diana and I were travelling up and down the east coast during our summer of love in D.C. We were both interning at agencies and made our get away every weekend. It was a summer I’ll never forget – and one in which I learned a lot about myself. It was also the summer Harry met Diana.

Well, technically Harry met both of us at once. He was an English tourist on his leap year during college and he was tall and he had a cute little accent. I remember it all very vividly. I even remember when Diana got his email address. It was harrythepimp. And yet despite that, Diana fell in love. In the weeks that followed, they hit if off. We planned to all meet in Philadelphia for a concert, and they shared their first kiss. Then, he visited D.C. and the rest….well, the rest is history. They stayed in touch over an entire continent and ocean and maintained a transatlantic relationship for three years. An impressive couple, we all knew this day would come. Now, the fun part: a wedding in London!

Congratulations, Diana & Harry, I love you both
