A Florida couple made an astonishing discovery that proves a couple of things -- the love of your life might be just around the corner, and that love will eventually find a way.

Call it a cute coincidence or simply something that was meant to be.

Jason Roth and his wife Jessica, both 35, have been married for nearly 10 years after meeting at a local nightclub in college.

"She was the girl that would come in every Saturday night and I would see but not want to approach because I thought she was out of my league," Jason said.

But, it turns out this couple's love story began long before college.

A photo shows them in preschool, where they unknowingly attended the same Halloween costume party. Jason is seen in the front right-hand side of the picture dressed as Superman, and his future wife is shown on the left-hand side of the photo dressed in a pink genie costume.

They didn't discover this coincidence until well after they started dating.

"I said, 'Were you by chance ever a genie?'" Jason said. "And she said, 'Oh my gosh, I was.'"

About a year after discovering the picture, the couple got engaged and used the fortuitous photo as their "Save the Date," which read: "In about 20 years, he'll turn around and catch his first glimpse of her. On April 9th she'll say I Do."

Today, that couple of kids is now a couple with three kids of their own.
