We would like to invite you to join us in celebration of our matrimony! Ceremony and reception will be held at The Belle Rae in downtown Bakersfield. Details soon to follow. Brett & Lola met through a mutual friend in 2009. After that, they developed a friendship. At one point they even worked together at Sports Authority. They would see each other around more often and hang out with fellow coworkers after work. In that time, they began to enjoy each other’s company and laughter. Which eventually evolved into more. Brett always enjoyed Lola’s spontaneous attitude and humor. He often challenged her on the dance floor whenever they would meet. In that span of getting to know each other she even offered to come over and cook chicken tacos for him. Which was the first time anyone had done that for him. That gesture would cement the foundation of their future. Lola knew that she wanted to pursue Brett when her and a bridesmaid, Deeja, went to a party on what Brett described as a “circle street” (which later we figured out he meant to say cul de sac). After confusion and laughter, that was the moment that defined everything. Shortly after, Brett began working out of state in North Dakota in the oil fields. He didn’t visit home often but once again, through mutual relationships their paths aligned. This time around, this path would be intertwined forever. After a decade of companionship, Brett & Lola are making their love for each eternal. They share a home together with their 2 sons, Noah and Josiah, and their pet dog Cooper. Now they would like to share their union with you. Come join us March 25th.
