Our Story
The Story of Us
We both set out with the same intention —
to find our Jewish soulmate.
Elizabeth had just moved to Highland Park, Illinois, focused on her path toward earning her PharmD. Mark was building his real estate career, searching for the person he would share his life with.
9 · September · 2023our paths crossed.
Our first date was at Dave & Buster’s — a night filled with competition, laughter, and something deeper we both felt immediately.
From that night on, we were inseparable.
Hours of conversation came naturally — about Judaism, family, education, and the values shaped by our upbringing. What could have been difficult conversations felt effortless.
The connection was clear. The love came quickly. And what began as two individuals searching became something certain.
1 · January · 2026at midnight, we said yes.
Today, we are not only soulmates, but best friends —
creating a life rooted in trust, faith, and the ability
to be completely ourselves with one another.
אֲנִי לְדוֹדִי וְדוֹדִי לִי
I am my beloved’s · and my beloved is mine
