Ana's perspective: "I met Edgar only two weeks after moving to LA from Miami. After I got my first job in the city, my best friend Crystal (now my Maid of Honor), invited me over to Bucca di Beppo for a celebratory drink and meal, as she was working the Bucca bar. Giddy with excitement and free margaritas, I ended up staying till closing. Once the last customer left, this very tall, very cute guy came out of the kitchen to do “inventory” on the bar. Crystal introduced him as Edgar the Executive chef. He smiled at me and said hello. At this moment, filled with hope and uncertainty, I didn’t know what my new life in LA would look like, but I knew I really wanted to see that smile again. And I'm so glad I did." Edgar's perspective: "So how did we meet? It all started on what seemed to be a typical work day for me at Buca di Beppo (Italian restaurant). However, this didn’t turn out to be an ordinary day at all. My day and life had been changed without me knowing it yet. So I was at work, just doing my regular routine for the night, when one of my coworkers lets me know that Crystal (the bartender) had a friend visiting her at the bar. This friend was described to me as very cute and so I decided to go take a look for myself. Once I got to the bar, I realized my coworker was absolutely right, I was very pleased when I saw her. Crystal spotted me near the bar and called me over to introduce me. I could immediately sense there was a mutual attraction when I shook her hand and looked into her eyes for the first time. However, the meeting was short lived as I had to get back to work to finish up my night and go home. Once I was out, I walked across The Grove Mall to the parking structure towards my car. About halfway, who do I notice walking by? Of course it was Crystal and her beautiful friend Ana walking in front of me. I quickly and nervously said hi once more and kept walking. But then after a few steps, I turned around, I noticed she did as well. We both smiled and the rest was history."
