Words From Our Couples
Love Stories
Erica & Chris Hayes
MARRIED DECEMBER 31, 2018
Chris and I met in September of 2011, at the University of Guelph, where we were in the same department completing our graduate studies. It was the first day of orientation when we saw each other for the first time. Chris was sitting behind me and ‘accidentally’ flicked his pen at me – and would you believe, he still remembers what I was wearing that day! Luckily, our interactions continued, as we would see each other around campus and at various department events. Our friendship grew stronger in January of 2012, when we began running together.
Robin & Michael McCurdy
MARRIED JANUARY 9, 2016
Michael and I were high school sweethearts. Our love story began at the age of sixteen, when we met playing for our school’s tennis team. Michael was really good at tennis, and took it very seriously. Me on the other hand, I really only joined as an excuse to miss some school and hang out with friends! My friend Lauren and I would sit and chat on the sidelines as Michael practiced, which probably annoyed him to no end. Despite the fact that I didn’t take tennis as seriously as he did, we became good friends throughout the season and started hanging out together outside of school.
