Although Ivan and Amanda knew of each other in college, due to Ivan's cousin and Amanda being in the same sorority at Cal State Fullerton, their love story began in 2018. Ivan was a gym rat and would frequently visit 24 Hour Fitness, where Amanda was working at the front desk making sure his membership was up to date. Smiles and conversation would be exchanged but both of them were too shy to make the first move. Around came Amanda's birthday in July and Ivan sent Amanda a Happy Birthday direct message on Instagram. They bonded over their passion for the gym and similar music taste. It wasn't long before they planned a day to workout together. The rest is history! After 3 years of memories and adding to their family with 4 fur babies, Ivan finally popped the question on Christmas Eve in front of both of their families. Amanda of course said yes! We can't wait for this exciting new chapter to begin!
