This Valentine's day, we wanted to feature some real Kirrin Finch customers and their lovely partners! The cuteness is absolutely overwhelming. Check out how these couples met, and the occasions for their adorable photos!
Sarah and Hannah
HOW DID YOU MEET?
We both work in book publishing, and originally met at a networking event and talked for a (great) few minutes. Months later, we ran into each other again at a queer speed dating event at The Strand (an independent bookstore in New York City), and have been together ever since.
FOR WHAT OCCASION WAS THIS PHOTO TAKEN?
Sarah's dad got married in North Carolina, so obviously we had to bring our queer style A-game. We each wore one of Kirrin Finch's Oxford shirts, which worked perfectly with our suits.
In this photo, Sarah is wearing the Stark Light Gray Oxford, and Hannah is wearing the Pankhurst White Oxford.
Alex and Allison
HOW DID YOU MEET?
We found each other on a dating app, but quickly took the conversation to a local brewery. I (Allison) got there first and was waiting so when Alex walked in the doors her glasses fogged up immediately. So she couldn't see me but I could see her, and my face immediately lit up. We hit it off right away and stayed talking until close. We've been meant to be since day one!
FOR WHAT OCCASION WAS THE PHOTO TAKEN?
Our wedding! October 17, 2018 was the most magical day of our lives.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD?
We both feel very strongly about wearing clothing and accessories that makes us feel comfortable. For our wedding day, we knew it was especially important to feel comfortable and like the most authentic representation of ourselves possible. Kirrin Finch really provided an opportunity for Alex to dress in a way that she felt fully comfortable (and looked super heckin stylish too!)
In this photo, Alex is wearing the Navy Woodlawn, Navy Chinos and Poppins Bowtie.

Laura and Danielle
HOW DID YOU MEET?
Danielle and I crossed paths a few times without really connecting. A few years later, we ended up working together on the same shift and became good friends. A year or so later, things just clicked, the timing was finally right, and the rest is history!
FOR WHAT OCCASION WAS THIS PHOTO TAKEN?
We were celebrating my best friend’s wedding day! Lucky us- it was our two year wedding anniversary weekend, too!
In this photo, Laura is wearing the Murie short-sleeve button down and Navy Chinos.
Cailtin and Will
HOW DID YOU MEET?
We met on the grand interhighway of OK Cupid, even though we lived just a couple blocks from each other in Queens.
FOR WHAT OCCASION WAS THIS PHOTO TAKEN?
This photo was a behind the scenes shot from KF's fall photo shoot in September 2018, which we came down from Boston to be a part of because we're obsessed with KF, everyone who works there, and everything they stand for.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD?
Wish us luck as we get married next Friday 2/22!! Fun fact - our wedding officiant is none other than KF staff member, E Garcia.
In this photo, Will is wearing the Forest Green Beanie, and Caitlin is wearing the Navy Beanie and Bly flannel.
Kara and Ami
HOW DID YOU MEET?
We are both American Sign Language Interpreters in the Washington, D.C. area and we met at an orientation for work.
FOR WHAT OCCASION WAS THIS PHOTO TAKEN?
We were on vacation for 3 weeks celebrating my (Kara's) 30th birthday (1 week per decade!). In this photo we were on our way to dinner on the island of Ischia in Italy.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU'D LIKE TO ADD?
This May we will celebrate our 5th anniversary globe trotting, eating, drinking and loving each other.
In this Photo, Kara is wearing the Fossey short-sleeve button down and Poppins bow tie.
