we got Married!

We met in October of 2015 at the Congregation Ale House while Nick was brewing a beer & Ariana came in to drink one. A month later, Ariana got hired to work at the same brewery & we began hanging out as friends. Soon after, that friendship blossomed into the greatest love EVER! Once we started dating we both knew this love was a love like no other. We spent the next 6 years having the time of our lives. We love riding bikes, being with our animals, drinking beers & tequila! We love adventures & having fun!

After our first Christmas together, Nick mentioned, he always wanted to spend Christmas in Mexico on the beach having fun. The next year, Ariana made that happen! Since then, we have gone to Playa del Carmen, Mexico every year & spent our holiday relaxing & being together! Christmas 2020 was an extra special vacation because Nick finally decided to propose! Woo Hoo!! We have both known since the beginning of our relationship that we would be together forever. Now it was going to be official! We spent a lot of time planning a wedding together but ultimately decided that we wanted to do it in Mexico the next Christmas we spent away. We planned a spiritual ceremony that was performed by a Mayan Shaman. Took place at a cenote in the jungle of Playa Del Carmen. We experienced such a powerful & spiritual moment together that we will never forget. We are so grateful for everyone who took part in our ceremony that day. When we came home from Mexico, Ariana's brother Niko, legalized our marriage in our front yard in Monrovia, Ca. Our parents & siblings all came together for a casual Claro's dinner, listening to vinyl, enjoying beers & of course tequila!

We would love for you to get a glimpse into our beautiful ceremony in the jungle. PLEASE COPY URL to our google album: https://photos.app.goo.gl/LD2LxaVtiBNNCaH16
