It all started in the spring of 2018; Bethany was fresh out of a breakup, and visiting local bars to ease the pain with a mutual friend of her and Paris’. Often, said mutual friend would take Bethany into the Corner Door bar, just blocks from where she and Bethany lived at the time. Bethany interacted a few times with Paris, then a young bartender and musician who sported bleached blonde hair (and only the most vibrant of shirts,) but they’d never taken it further than some friendly conversations. Behind their backs, howevever, Bethany and Paris’ mutual friends decided to set them up! Their mutual friends each told Bethany and Paris in secret that they’d asked for the other’s phone number when, you guessed it, they actually hadn’t! So, Bethany texted Paris thinking he wanted her to, since he’d had his friend ask for her number, and Paris received a random text from “Bethany from the bar” asking to hang out thinking she was, well, very eager. By the end of their first date they realized they’d been set up, laughed it off, and they’ve been together ever since! Two years later, on March 5, 2020, Paris surprised Bethany with an intimate morning proposal before she left for a trip to Washington, DC. (He claims it was the only time he could actually catch her off guard with a surprise!) They currently live and work in Culver City, CA. They recently adopted Frank the dog to add to their family brood of two cats, Boochie and Priss. They’d both tell you they’re very blessed.
