San Francisco, 2016. The city was an exciting place to live and work, but love wasn't waiting around the corner. It was waiting for us on a simple app called Coffee Meets Bagel. Paris: 24, Bay Area native, an English major always in search of a good story. Enjoys coffee with her sugar, walking around the city, reading lots. Doug: 25, from Atlanta, second year at law school and happy to explore San Francisco and getting lost with you while eating some In-N-Out burgers. August 7th was a Sunday. At noon, Paris was alerted to a phone notification. She got a match. "Hi Paris!" A message read. "Do you want to hear the story of how I fell off my kitchen counter trying to fly like Peter Pan?" Doug had basically told her the story-- but nonetheless, Paris was intrigued. Five years later through law school, The Godfather movie nights, rides aboard the N train, growing careers, Golden State Warriors championships, too many Old Fashioneds, vintage costume events, beach days, and oldies music, there couldn't be a better story to tell than the one we've lived together. In the city where we met and fell in love, we cannot wait to add this new chapter with our wedding, and best of all, to celebrate it with those we love!
Thank you!
