"Our story" input needed!

I'm on mobile, so corrections won't be great, but yeah, you have some errors and weird sounding sentences.

For example, in sentence 1: December 31 is always New Year's Eve, no need to say the date. Combine that fragment with sentence 2.

Check your comma usage. It's not quite on point.

I would make a few minor changes. Instead of saying "we lived and explored Pittsburgh" I would say "we lived in and explored pittsburgh." After teaching job before your with our four cats needs a period not a coma. Then I would say "with our four cats in tow we made the move and have settled in nicely." At the end of the sentence of what the two of you enjoy should say "and going on road trips." It's a very cute story.

"All the while during this time"

-there are two separate phrases here that mean the exact same thing. Pick one.

Commas go before and after a year when the full date is in the middle of a sentence.

New Year's Eve. The apostrophe makes a difference.

Those job titles don't require capitalization.

The sentence that starts "Not being familiar with" needs rearranging.

Why does your venue need this?

You left out a word by road trips. I'm guessing "going" should be added. Also, many of your sentences start with fragments that need commas. Such as "not being familiar with spray tanning *insert comma", I; "after that,".. first time you say Brandon it should read "her cousin, Brandon,"; maybe start off with 0n NYE, 2011, Sam, my roommate in college, ..." also comma is needed after "before the excitement of NYE,"
