Emily Krebill and Michael Triplett, former acquaintances from the Chapel Hill music scene (he is a member of Fin Fang Foom), reconnected at a party on Super Bowl Sunday in 2008. But don’t bother asking them who won – they were too busy catching up to pay attention to the game.
Emily, a graduate of East Chapel Hill High School, moved away to California to attend the University of California-Santa Cruz after graduation, and she and Michael lost touch. The 2008 encounter occurred during what was meant to be a brief trip home to visit her father, Dan Krebill of Chapel Hill, before moving to San Francisco. The pit stop turned permanent – Emily never left.
Michael proposed in June 2009 during a romantic sunset stroll on a Topsail Island pier. The couple married in the garden of the bride’s father – a half-acre work of surrealistic landscape art known as The Uncommon Garden, located at his home off Weaver Dairy Road. Emily had one word for the ceremony: magical.
The bride is the daughter of Dan Krebill and Susan Miller of Fairfax, Virginia. The groom is the son of the late Ken Triplett of Bruce, Wisconsin, and Joy Grass of Keystone Heights, Florida.
The couple reside in Chapel Hill. Michael is the art director for Yep Roc Records/Redeye Distribution, and he runs a freelance design and photography company. Emily and Michael also work together, photographing weddings, and Emily works at Bowbarr in Carrboro. CHM
