Jenny and Jason are both massage therapists who met while co-working at a spa. At that time, Jenny was married and Jason was torturing himself by chasing other women. After three years of watching Jason cycle through romances, Jenny became a divorcee. During one fateful night at work, these two wandering souls shared a conversation that seemed to cover eveything all at once. As Jenny says, "I felt more connected to him than I had to another person in years." Jenny marked her return to the dating scene, after a 10-year hiatus, by calling Jason up and asking him out, but he turned her down! Apparently, he had band practice that night and, he was so discombobulated from the offer, he forgot to ask for a raincheck. Kicking himself over a lost opportunity, Jason emailed Jenny a few days later and asked her out this time. Upon receiving his email, Jenny became giddy like a teenager. She jumped up and down around her apartment. These two soulmates, who fit together like jig-saw puzzle pieces, have been together ever since.
Unfortunately, the collapse of the economy took with it a nest egg that was intended to be used for their wedding nuptials. The setback took the wind right out of this couple and they have been floundering for ways to create the wedding they envision since. They're keeping their fingers crossed that the Hidden Valley's "Who Wants to Win a Wedding?" contest will be the answer they've been seeking.
Good luck to Jason and Jenny our "Who Wants to Win a Wedding?" couple #20!

Take it from someone who only knew her intended for 8 months--- when God puts who he intends for you to spend the rest of your life with, you have to act. Way to go Jen. Some men just need that little knock on the head, to see what's right in front of them! Now 35 years later and growing old together, You have MY vote.

ReplyDeleteI don't know of a couple more in love and deserving of a fantastic wedding. You have my vote!
ReplyDeleteThese two truely deserve this as they are really great people
ReplyDeleteWhere is Oprah when you need her? I guess we all have to be a little bit Oprah, especially in these times. Look under your chair.

ReplyDeleteTwo of the nicest people I know! They defiantly deserve to win!! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how fate brought you both to California when you guys originated on the east coast. You are truly deserving of eachother. It's obvious how perfect you guys are together. You deserve a fairytale wedding!
ReplyDeleteHey you two, Git-er-done!!!!!
ReplyDeletebout time would this mean no BB&B wedding her father's dream for his daughter Bluegrass, Barb-B-Q & bib overals's :) :)
he he he
just got an e-mail from Jen's mom go for it you two her mom & dad just love Jason and highly approve can't wait to meet this future member of the family got my vote
ReplyDeleteHope all of us here on the East coast will be invited. We all want to experience some time in that sunshine state you all brag about. We all love the two of you, and you both just radiate what true love is. got my vote.
ReplyDeleteYou go girly! U deserve it! I've never heard your dtory all the way thru. Very romantic!
ReplyDeletebest story of all! i believe you 2 totally deserve your cinderella wedding!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck, you two! I'm sure your wedding will be dreamy.
ReplyDeletePeople with "J" names should just be together.
ReplyDeleteJen's mom & dad are all for this union, so that's good enough for me. Hadn't heard how you met. LOVE your love story. Something to tell the future little Jens or Jasons. I vote for you both.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to welcome Jason to this crazy family. :) :)
ReplyDeleteI've known Jason since the first grade and this is the first time I saw him with someone I thought he could be with for the long haul. So give these two crazy-kids a dream wedding already!
ReplyDeleteAs a friend of the groom-to-be since we were 7 years old, I may be biased, but I can honestly say no one deserves it more. It's a rare thing to genuinely care about others these days, and Jason has always been one of the most caring people I've ever met. Sometimes to his detriment -- he always gives others the benefit of the doubt, which has led to him being taken advantage of in relationships and business dealings in the past. But I'm happy he's found someone who can give him the care he deserves, and vice versa. And you have to give props to a bride and groom who share a profession that helps people feel *better*, especially in this day and age, when everything seems geared to making people feel *worse*!
ReplyDeleteAll the best, Jason and Jen -- I'm pulling for you.
I wish you two the best of luck on winning as well as a promising life together.
ReplyDeleteMy fingers are crossed for you both!
Much love, Amber
Love has a way of bringing the right people together. You both deserve a fabulous wedding!
ReplyDeleteJenny & Jason,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your betrothel, how exciting. I really hope you two win this contest.
Love yas!!
Hey you two! Amazing times :o) I'm so happy for the two of you.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck.
When's the wedding? I heard an old saying about marriage..first comes the engagement ring, then the wedding ring, then the suffering :o)
ReplyDeleteI sure hope that you guys win this contest. Let me know when the wedding is so I can start thumbing from Maryland to CA :o)
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat idea having a contest like this. I can't think of two more deserving people than you two.
ReplyDeleteTook me a while to figure how to get on this site. Hope I don't goof this up trying to post it. Hope you are doing well and hope you win the contest.
ReplyDeleteUncle Rufus
Hey Jen,
ReplyDeleteThis is your old Dad. I saw someone post an idea I had for Donny and Alexis wedding but they turned the idea down. I called it a 4B wedding.
Beer
Barbeque
Bluegrass musicm and
Bib overalls for the bride,& groom and wedding party and guests :o)
Whaddaya think? If you don't win this we can still do it :o)
What a whacko idea..4B wedding. No wonder no one wanted it. Whata hick. Poor Jen & Jason. You HAVE to win this contest.
ReplyDeleteI don't know,
ReplyDeleteThat 4B wedding sounds like a lot of fun and it would be a darn site cheaper than all that fanciful stuff. It sure would be memorable. Ya'll have to learn how to clog to dance to the bluegrass music though. LOL
Jenny me girl!! This is your uncle Brendan from Feakle, County Clare Ireland. Congratulations on your coming wedding. Make sure I get an invite!!
ReplyDeleteLuv ya dear.

ReplyDeleteGood Luck!!
The Mouse on the Barroom Floor
ReplyDeleteSome Guinness was spilled on the barroom floor
when the pub was shut for the night.
Out of his hole crept a wee brown mouse
and stood in the pale moonlight.
He lapped up the frothy brew from the floor,
then back on his haunches he sat.
And all night long you could hear him roar,
'Bring on the goddam cat!'
Good Luck Jen and Jason :o)
Jenny and Jason,
ReplyDeleteHere's an Irish Marriage Blessing for ye.
May God be with you and bless you.
May you see your children's children.
May you be poor in misfortunes
and rich in blessings.
May you know nothing but happiness
from this day forward.
Love,
Uncle Seamus

I think Jen and Jason should win because they are a mature very loving and hard working couple. They were robbed of their wedding savings by an underhanded evil scam. They have my vote
ReplyDeletelove these two people, don't know any other couple more deserving
ReplyDeletegot my vote
Well kids,
ReplyDeleteas they say in old Ireland
NÃl aon leigheas ar an ngrá ach pósadh.
The only cure for love is marriage.
You two deserve each other
Awwww sounds like this rotten economy has snookered you of your $$. No fear. Both of you will win the contest and live happily ever after :o)
ReplyDeleteSo you're finally gonna get hitched. Good on yas. I couldn't think of a nicer , more deserving couple than you two.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm. This is a pretty slick idea. If I could find someone to marry me, this is a great way to go. Oh well. But you have each other and are a great pair.. Bon chance!
ReplyDeleteNicest couple I know and most deserving of a break. I hope you win.

(sorry abou the shameless plug.) jenny is more of a sleeper animal but an animal none the less. they totally deserve this wedding deal. by the way does it include an open bar? do you need a wedding band to play?
ReplyDeleteI met both at work while Jenny was Married and always though the best of both. After befriending Jenny while in a loveless marriage a where she adopted 2 lap puppies to see if her husband would connect with them with no luck she choose divorce. Jason a jewish drummer for a rock band slash cute massage therapist was a perfect much for sexy girl ibnsearch of soulmate. Being her single gay guy friend I watched these two date and became aware of their passion equally emotional as well as physical. I know they have been financially strapped and Jenny dreams of a wedding to suit their soulmate status. I feel she ad jason deserve this
ReplyDeleteprize. Give them the weddig they deserve.
