Cassie & Jeff met the good old fashioned way, by liking each other on Hinge. Jeff had a prompt saying he would "introduce you to his family if... you could properly shuffle a deck of cards". Cassie so smartly replied that she could even bridge them. For their first date, Jeff volunteered to meet Cassie at Drake's in Oakland where she was living with her best friend (and now Maid of Honor) and 1 year old doggo, Cleo, at the time. For their second date, Jeff made Cassie prove she actually could shuffle a deck of cards before things could progress any further. After proving herself, Cassie and Jeff went to dinner and the piano bar, Johnny Foley's. They then alternated between dates in Oakland and SF. For the first year of their relationship, they were Bay Area long distance (the bridge commute is rough!!) and spent time back and forth between Oakland and the Marina. Cleo learned how to be a Marina girl and soon so did Cassie, and she moved in with Jeff to his infamous place at Cervantes. She got rid of the gross couches, Jeff learned to love being a dog dad and they made their place a home for their little family of 3. They spent many nights at home playing Wingspan, taking Cleo to Yappy Hour at the dog park and exploring the nearby restaurants. Jeff and Cassie both always dreamed they would be back in the suburbs and about 10 months later, they made that dream a reality by moving to their new home in Walnut Creek. The first visit after they got the keys, Jeff surprised Cassie on a Tuesday by proposing to her in front of their new house. Not one to let a moment go without her in it, Cleo photo bombed every picture. They are so happy to be in their home and beginning their lives together and cannot wait to celebrate with you!

Travel Note
We recommend flying into San Francisco International Airport (SFO). From there, you can rent a car or call an Uber to get to Napa (approximately an hour drive). Note that there is plenty of Uber availability in Napa, so you don't really need a rental car to get around (especially if you are doing wine tastings!). We will also be providing shuttle transportation, please check back for updates. We have also listed some additional recommended hotels in the area.
