Getting to Know the Groom

Justin was born and raised in Fresno, California. He moved to Los Angeles when he started college at the University of California Los Angeles in August 2011 where he majored in political science and communication studies. After graduating from UCLA he attended Southwestern Law School where he earned his Juris Doctor degree and passed the California bar exam in 2018. He currently practices plaintiff's personal injury litigation law. In his free time he loves going to country music concerts (favorite artists include Brad Paisley, Luke Combs, Morgan Wallen, Luke Bryan, and Rascal Flatts), sporting events (favorite teams include the San Francisco Giants, New York Giants, Los Angeles Lakers, and UCLA Bruins), and celebrity events to meet celebrities and get autographs (favorite celebrities who he has met include Chadwick Boseman, Kobe Bryant, Neil Patrick Harris, Mark Hamill, and Luke Combs). He is also an avid runner who has completed twelve marathons and his goal is to eventually run a marathon in every state and complete the Abbott World Marathon Majors. He knew Nicole was the person he wanted to spend the rest of his life with shortly after they first started dating as she is one of the most compassionate people he has ever met. She is also not afraid to "keep it real," and speak her mind.

Getting to Know the Bride

Nicole was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. She is the older sister to her brother James who is Deaf and she loves him dearly. She went to the University of La Verne in 2016 for Psychology while attending Pasadena City College. She joined Alpha Omicron Pi while attending ULV and made lifetime sisters and graduated both colleges in 2018 with her Bachelors in Psychology and three Associate degrees. She attended Pacific Oaks College for Marriage and Family Therapy in 2018 and graduated in 2021. She is an Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. In her free time Nicole loves to listen to K-Pop, Rock, Mexican, Oldies, Hip Hop, Country, Alternative, Irish, and many other music genres. She likes to watch Lord of the Rings, Marvel, Comedy, and other movies. She loves going to concerts with Justin even though she says they don't need pit tickets all the time. She loves dying her hair and doing her nails and never does the same color twice. Nicole knew Justin was the one for her after the third date and told her Mom and Grandma "I miss him and Love him. I can see myself spending the rest of my life with him."

How We Met/How long We Known Each Other

We met on Facebook Dating on May 1st, 2022. We talked on Facebook for a few weeks before messaging each other on May 4th, 2022. We talked for 4 months before getting together in August 2022. We've known each other for 3 years but engaged for 1 year and 10 months.

First Date

Our first date was on May 14, 2022 in Santa Monica at a Mexican Restaurant by the Pier. After we ate we walked the pier and the Third Street Promenade. We talked about who we are, our interests, our goals and aspirations. We also shared how nervous we were meeting each other but quickly became comfortable with each other and started laughing and joking. We shared that we couldn't wait to set up our next date. After our date I drove Justin home and got to meet Jennifur and fell in love with her.

First Concert

Last Night was Hands Down One of the Best Nights That I've Had No Doubt

Our first concert was on August 5th, 2022 which was Thomas Rhett. This was the day that we officially started dating.

First Trip together

Our first trip together was Las Vegas from December 26 to December 30th 2022. This was Nicole's first time meeting Justin's parents. Justin was excited for Nicole to go on their annual Holiday Vegas trip. Nicole was nervous as she was meeting Justin's parents and hoped they liked her. The trip was fun and everyone had a fantastic time.

Happily Ever After

I proposed at Nicole's 30th Birthday celebration on December 9th 2023 in front of family and friends. I had been planning on this date since Memorial Day 2023 when I asked her parents.
