After connecting on match.com, Fallon and Bill met for a drink in April 2009. Although she was initially skeptical about online dating, the pair hit it off instantly. An in-person meeting for a quick drink turned into a five-hour conversation that ended only because the bar closed. By October, Bill was spreading a blanket for a picnic, uncorking a bottle of wine, reciting a love letter he crafted, and asking Fallon to marry him. “It just felt right,” she says.
Fallon chose to return to her hometown of Duxbury, Massachusetts, to tie the knot. An ocean-side estate across the street from Fallon’s childhood home was the perfect setting to celebrate the couple’s love of the outdoors amidst their favorite colors of green and blue
Sarah and Shawn met in 1997, through mutual friends, while both were with other partners. Sarah was a fan of Shawn’s band. Shawn married and had a child and moved to Wyoming. End of story. For a while.
Years later, Shawn emailed Sarah and asked if she remembered him. Absolutely. He told her he was now divorced. She asked when he was coming back to the area for a visit. His band put together a reunion show back east in 2007, they met up, and moved in together in the spring of 2008.
A year later Shawn proposed. And, although they all have day jobs now, the band that brought the happy couple together is still together. In fact, they are “big in Belgium,” and a Belgium tour just two weeks before their wedding helped pay for the event!
