Carmel has always held a special place in our hearts—first separately and now together. We met three years ago through mutual friends (with a little help from Hinge too). On our third date, Lauren attended Scott's sister’s wedding in Pebble Beach, and the rest is history! Every year, we celebrate our anniversary in Carmel-by-the-Sea, and it’s where Scott proposed on Lauren’s birthday last August. We can’t wait to return this September to officially tie the knot, surrounded by all of you—our favorite people!
