Our Story

Tale as old as time?

Picture this: the year is 2020. A year of possibilities. Holidays were all on Fridays and Saturdays, artists were planning their most exciting concerts, even the year itself had a nice ring to it. Sean just moved into the Sequoia Street apartment complex, known by then on Google Maps as "Club Sequoia." Chelsea had already been the queen of the "Club" for the last 4 years. Neither of them were looking for nor wanted a relationship. They were ready to tackle their neighborhood of Pacific Beach on their own terms. Then...March 17th, 2020, one day before Sean's 29th birthday, the order to quarantine came from the top, and they were all locked down. Initially it was rough. But once they realized that they weren't going anywhere and lockdown was looking like a permanent fixture, they thought: "I should probably get to know that cute neighbor." They quickly became friends, moving faster on the path to falling in love. And just like any Pacific Beach story - they expressed their love for each other on Cinco de Mayo, 2020, and haven't looked back. Since then it's been a life of adventure, happiness, challenges, joy, learning, Kiwi, and most importantly, loving. They're so excited to spend this next chapter of life building to those gray haired days on the beach, watching sunsets, and forever being in love.
