Caroline & Darius: Modern Romance at Bridgehampton Tennis & Surf Club

Caroline and Darius Wedding – Ceremony Atmosphere – Bridgehampton Tennis and Surf Club – Pat Furey Photography

Caroline and Darius first met during their first year of college in New York City – she was going to FIT, and he was going to NYU. The sparks were apparent to both, so much so that Darius went home to tell his roommate (and best friend) that he had just met the woman he was going to marry. But it wasn’t until after both had studied abroad for a year that Caroline and Darius were able to truly connect. “We met up again at a New Year’s Eve party, and we have been inseparable ever since,” Caroline recalls. “I think we both knew immediately – it felt this was the way it was supposed to be.”
