Menuez: "A couple of co-workers who were falling in love celebrating with abandon at the Adobe annual holiday party of 1988. They were married shortly after the party but divorced a few years later."

Using "but" is editorializing to me -- like saying they shouldn't have gotten married in the first place, since they later divorced.
