How We Met

Erick and I met through marching band at UCLA. He played the tuba and I was in the drumline, and my early memories of him include following him during rehearsals because I was too lazy to learn my own drill, running into him at my dorm while he was studying with friends, and chatting while walking through the Rose Bowl after a halftime performance. We started dating in September of 2016, so by the time the wedding rolls around, we'll have been together for over a decade! Over the past 10 years, we've done lots of drives back and forth between our parents' homes and our respective schools in LA and San Diego, and we're now living together in a beautiful home in Corona, CA. We've adopted two perfect cats, Zero and Felix, and we're excited for a lifetime of love ahead of us, as well as celebrating our wedding day with all of our favorite people!
