In 2013 we were both small fish in a big pond called UCI (University of California, Irvine for our out-of-state friends). We both agree that destiny must have assigned us to live in the same Freshman hall. We didn't cross paths until later on in 2014 - first we became friends, then best friends, then more than friends...! Luckily Bryan gathered up the courage to confess his true feelings to Kaela via a love note. It took her some time to navigate the waters of friendship to relationship, but she eventually got there, and they have been inseparable ever since. May 16, 2014 was the official date Bryan asked Kaela to be his girlfriend... ...and 2,051 days later (that's 5 years, 7 months, and 11 days to be exact) on December 27, 2019 - he asked her to be his WIFE! We are now living in Northridge, CA together with the happiest 5-year old Malti-pom you will ever meet, named Molly. We are so excited to share our big day with you! Photo below is from our first date - 5/16/14. (We were 19!)
