We found each other, now time to celebrate safely, outside.

In early 2010, Christine went on a bike ride from PB to downtown La Jolla. She had to separate from friends on the way back and took a shortcut route through the La Jolla bike path, but was unsure she was heading in the right direction until she laid eyes on Ryan, so she asked him for directions. He told her the way, and she noticed two cds in his hand, one was Robert Johnson and the other was Them Crooked Vultures, a band Christine had just seen in concert. They sparked up a conversation about favorite bands and Christine learned Ryan was a musician. Before Christine headed home, they exchanged numbers. They went on a few dates that year, but timing in 2010 was not on their side; however they never forgot each other and stayed connected via social media. In 2017, on a chance run-in in PB during their morning workouts, they exchanged numbers once more and agreed to meet over coffee. Some months later, the date ended up being over wine and it ignited the beginning of their relationship. ...We've never been happier, and are so happy you can celebrate our union. While this year threw some wrenches into our wedding plans, it just reinforced why we want to be husband and wife. Thank you for being a part of our lives and this special occasion.
