So how did this double love story start?
It can all be traced back to Grand Valley State University in 2014, when Kassie and Nick were in the same psychology class, theCitizen Patriotreported.
“I was looking around and I looked behind and I was like, ‘Oh. I’m in trouble now,’ ” Nick teased to theCitizen Patriot. “I’m in disbelief sometimes of just how everything happened.”
All four eventually had their first double date together, attending a Sunday mass.
“We’re standing there in the church getting ready to sing and they just start belting it out,” Kassie told theCitizen Patriot. “They were actually singing. My sister and I looked at each other like, ‘Who are these guys?’ ”
The couples also credit being raised with similar family values for keeping them close. “I’m just really thankful that we met two girls,” said Zack to theCitizen Patriot. “Not just because they’re twins, but they grew up the same as we did.”
These days, they spend time together often and call themselves “the fam” — though, “We’re not the same people,” Krissie explained to theCitizen Patriot.
“We’re actually very different — like night and day, when it comes to some personality traits. Yes, we look-alike. Yes, we have very similar interests in things. But we are very different people.”
That individuality had the couples planning separate weddings at first, until they realized they had a similar guest list.
“Being a twin, you never get anything on your own,” Krissie revealed to theCitizen Patriot.
They’ll compromise on their honeymoon, spending four days apart on separate vacations before meeting in the middle for a few days at Disney World, according to theCitizen Patriot.
