Jean Diep
When Jean first met Steve, she thought he was handsome and she liked his skateboard. They bonded over their love of
Weezer. In the beginning, it was hard to see each other
because Jean lived in Silver Spring and Steve lived in Gaithersburg and neither of them had a car. But
even though seeing each other meant having to take the bus or Redline from Silver Spring to Gaithersburg,
it was well worth it because she saw her man ‹3.
Steve is Jean's best friend and she can't wait to say I do!
Steve Seibel
Steve was curious about Jean--he thought she was witty and fun, and of course really cute. Steve laughed
every moment with Jean, and he liked that she hung on to his every word when he talked about dorky things
like the space-time continuum and Star Trek. He admired her
passion for pursuing a career in pastry, and her work-ethic and skills inspired him every day. After 13
years of dating, this inspiration has not faded--Steve is in awe of the amazing person that is Jean ‹3.

If you are joining us from out of town, you may wish to book accommodations. We do not have a room block available, but feel free to search for hotels in Gaithersburg, Rockville, or Silver Spring, Maryland. Many other lodging accommodations are available closer to Washington, DC and Baltimore; we recommend you look for accommodations in those areas there if you're planning on exploring either city over the weekend. If a hotel room is prohibitedly expensive, or otherwise unavailable, we highly recommend AirBnB as a cost-effective alternative.
We also recommend flying into Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI). Dulles International Airport (IAD) and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) are nearby options as well, but further out.
