We're getting married!

Katherine and Mario first met each other at Marin Catholic High School. Their strong connection first started when Mario was graduating. Mario and Katherine reignited their connection later in college while Katherine excelled at University of San Diego and Mario attended California Polytechnic University SLO. They traded off long drives between San Diego and SLO on the weekends for something greater. They both share a passion for family time, dogs, travel, and good food.

When Katherine started visiting Mario in San Luis Obispo, Mario was living in Shell Beach. They started to fall in love spending time enjoying the beauty of Shell Beach and Edna valley. Each weekend in Shell Beach was a glimpse of their future of spending life together. After seeking Dr. Aycock’s sacred approval to ask for Katherine’s hand, Mario couldn’t help to go back to where the base of their romance took off. Last summer, Mario and Katherine spent the day in Edna and Shell reminiscing on old times. At the end of a perfect day Katherine said yes to Mario’s biggest dream come true- a life long partner to ride the highs and lows and share life with laughter and love.
