The Start

Nearly a decade ago, Obama had just become president, Kim Yuna made Olympic history, the iPhone 4 was about to be unveiled, and Leo (fresh off the heels of Inception) still hadn’t won an Oscar. Needless to say, this was a really long time ago (Vicente Padilla was the Dodgers Opening-day starter for the Dodger fans out there). One Sunday afternoon in Anaheim Sarang Church, Mike was looking for his friends to avoid going to bible study at any cost, while Grace was lost wandering around the halls, trying to find her assigned study group. Both of them failed to find what they were looking for that day and found themselves sitting in the wrong room, directly across from each other. The rest, as they say, was history.

The Real Start

Fast forward to 8 years later and Mike knew. Grace knew. Family and Friends knew. Everyone knew at this point. It was just about damn time. Everyone knew it was time for the Los Angeles Dodgers to recapture the glory of winning the World Series once again. After all, it had been 30 long YEARS. Also. Everyone also knew it was just about damn time that Michael finally popped the question to Grace and get a move-on (After all, they’d been dating since the year Vicente Padilla was the Dodgers Opening-day starter). With all of the Bridal Party members in tow, they headed for Palm Springs to celebrate Grace’s birthday with a mini-vacation. After a fun-filled day of relaxing, eating, and even KPOP-dancing, the time had finally come. A video played recapping their relationship with memories of pictures and videos, and directing her to a room waiting for her “newest memory” surprise. Mike knew. Friends knew. Family knew. Everyone knew… except for Grace walking into the room in lackluster PJs, bare face, and her hair not-done. The rest, as they say, is history.
