Adeena & Josh in San Juan, Puerto Rico

Adeena and Josh met up a few times before becoming, well, just friends. After a few years of close friendship, Josh finally asked Adeena if she’d go on a date with him, but she said no. A few months later, though, she changed her mind. And a few months after that, the two moved in together. The Bride Adeena Colbert, 32, media relations manager The Groom Joshua Babbitt, 32, attorney The Date January 14 After dating for a year and a half, Josh asked Adeena out to dinner, and the two left their New York City apartment for the restaurant. They wound up first, however, in Washington Square Park. Josh stopped beneath the famous arch and asked her to marry him. The couple figured that their friends and family would have to travel to make it to the wedding no matter where it was, so they decided to go for a destination affair. We thought, 'What could be better than a sunny beach in the middle of winter?' Adeena says. So she and Josh chose Puerto Rico.
