Brian and Jessica’s journey began in 2016 when they met through a missions organization at just 16 and 17 years old. Though they lived miles apart—Jessica in Orange County and Brian in Temecula—their friendship remained strong through the many transitions of young adulthood. Brian pursued a degree in biology at the University of Washington and now works as a paramedic, preparing for a career as a firefighter. Jessica stayed close to home, earning her bachelor's degree in Nursing and has since begun her career in the field. Despite the challenges of distance and busy schedules, their love story unfolded in God’s perfect timing. On January 17, 2022, they officially began their relationship, spending countless hours on the road between Orange County and Temecula just to be together. Through it all, Brian and Jessica leaned on their faith in Jesus Christ, continually trusting in His grace and guidance. Now, as they step into this new chapter as husband and wife, Brian and Jessica are overwhelmed with gratitude. Their greatest joy is building a life centered on Christ, and they look forward to honoring Him in their marriage and future family. They are incredibly thankful for the love and support of their friends and family and can’t wait to celebrate this special day with all of you!
