Jessica and Ricky’s Philly LOVE Story is a literal LOVE story. One of the couple’s first dates took place at the Christmas Village in LOVE Park. And their first picture together? You guessed it: taken right under the iconic LOVE Sculpture.
The pair navigated through stretches of long-distance dating - with Ricky living in Philadelphia while Jessica returned to Ireland - by getting creative. Ricky often returned to the Christmas Village while FaceTiming with Jessica, recreating their early date despite a five-hour time difference.
Eventually, Jessica and Ricky decided to set roots down together in Philadelphia, citing the city’s culture and diversity as major reasons why Philly is the perfect place to call home. Don’t you just love love?
