Love Rewound: An Origin Story
It all started at a video store…
—
When small-town teens Peter and Christina met behind the counter at a local video store, sparks flew faster than a rewound VHS tape. Bonding over quirky comedies, retro video games, and a controversial love of pineapple pizza, it seemed like their rom-com was just beginning.
But life had other plans.
Pulled in different directions by big dreams and bigger cities, they said goodbye in 2006, unsure if their love story would ever get a sequel.
A decade passed. They occasionally said “hi” on Facebook. Then another two years passed. Then another year. And then just another 730 days….
Just when it seemed like their plot-line had faded to black, fate stepped in…
“We may have hit pause, but love hit play again—and this time it’s personal.”
— Peter
“We took the scenic route, but it led us right back to each other.”
— Christina
The happiest ending of all
Reunited in 2021, Peter and Christina soon rediscovered the magic they once shared. Even a cross-country move to New York couldn’t stop their story this time—long-distance love blossomed across miles, with romantic getaways to Iceland, Ireland, and Scotland turning postcards into memories.
Now, with their mischievous cat Snacks by their side, they’re ready for their next chapter: marriage. On September 27th, join them at the charming National Hotel—where cocktails flow and love stories never go out of style.
