We first met through mutual friends, and knew of each other for a couple of years. One night, we finally had the chance to spend some time one-on-one and get to know each other. We knew right away that there was something special between us. It turned out we were almost in the same place, at the same time, on dozens of occasions. It seemed as if we'd been circling each other's lives before truly meeting one another. The universe finally brought us together, and we never looked back.
After 5 years of growing together, it was becoming clearer and clearer that the two of us wanted to be a part of one another's lives forever. We spent the day at the Huntington Library's Botanical Garden, and when we stopped to take a picture in front of a waterfall, I surprised her (or tried to surprise her) with a ring.
It is so meaningful to us to share this special day with our most cherished friends and family. We hope to have the honor to dine, laugh, and dance with you on our wedding day. It will mean the world to us.
