Question

What happened to Destination Wedding?

Answer

If this is a new question for you, then congrats you never knew about our -almost- destination wedding! We almost had a small intimate wedding on the beautiful beaches of San Diego, with just our families in attendance. But we both collectively decided a few things that were out of our price range and out of our ideology of a wedding. It's OUR day, we want it to be special and non traditional just like how we are. We also didn't want to step on anyone's toes or get feelings hurt of those who knew about our destination wedding, and those who did not. It's a celebration after all. We would much rather celebrate with close friends and family alike than to have our wedding feel exclusive.

Question

Question

Where are you getting married?

Question

Why such a long engagement?

Answer

WHY NOT?! We get asked this question a lot! A year long engagement is statistically the standard across the US. Utah just has a reputation of a 3 month engagement. We want our wedding to be beautiful and we believe it cannot get achieved in a short time span. We love each other, and plus we already live together. So what's the hurry? We want to enjoy our time as fiancées.

Question

Where is the honeymoon?

Answer

We are planning on exploring the beautiful and humbly loved island of Kauai, Hawaii! (I know, surprising it's not Disneyland)

Question

Our Coming Out stories

Answer

A same-sex relationship is a first for both of our families to experience. Let alone ourselves! Is this a phase? Are we REALLY sure?? Believe us, it's never easy coming out. And once you start coming out, you never truly stop. It's the version of yourself you have to be really comfortable with. And for a long time we weren't. Society, church, politics, the list goes on because this world is not so kind. BUT, we found each other. And nothing else mattered. Our families realized this is true love, and it's NORMAL. That's what made us even more comfortable to be ourselves. Kelsey's Story: I started coming out to my friends at 18 after we graduated high school, then to my parents a few years after that, etc. When I would see friends getting married or living their life with their "best friend", it was always with a man, or vice versa. I could never picture that with myself. I couldn't see myself falling madly and deeply for a guy, and believe me, I tried. But it was never "right". When switching profiles from "men" to "women" on dating apps, I felt much more at peace with myself, and even more comfortable going on dates. When I met Marin, no date could compare to ours. It was a different, comforting feeling and I loved it. So I found my always. Marin's Story: My story had been in the works since I was young. I've never been comfortable going "super girly" and I always tried to hide it. I didn't do a very good job of it because I wore men's clothing, cut my hair so short, and I never could see myself ending up with a man no matter how many times I tried. I never pictured myself getting married or having a "happily ever after" because it couldn't be with a man. But I felt that It was the right time to come out I had finally found my soulmate, Kelsey. This is going to sound cheesy but from the moment I saw her on our very first date I knew she was the one for me. It was the best date and one I will cherish forever, because I found my forever.
