A fortunate stroke of serendipity

From strangers to companions

James and Caroline met in the most unexpected of ways. James was living in the Bay Area and went back home to LA for Christmas vacation in 2013. James had dinner with some friends, including his groomsman, Chris, who brought a friend, Christina. They ended up at a karaoke bar and Christina invited her younger sister, Caroline, as she happened to be down the street for dinner. To this day, James and Caroline still disagree on who made the first move that night but both agree that there was an instant connection. They had their first date a few days later and ended up hanging out for the next three days. Due to the distance, they both agreed that they'd see where it goes but neither had any expectations of it lasting. This so called “holiday fling” turned into a two year, long distance relationship because it was undeniable the chemistry that existed. Fortunately, Caroline found a job in the Bay Area and relocated in 2015. A truly serendipitous moment that flourished into inseparability, they are literal opposites in every way but this balance is what makes them special. They both believe that the best things in life come when you least expect it.
