A true internet love story. We matched on Hinge and Steven wooed Rachel with his quirky and cute messages. After days of fun banter, he asked her out to grab a cheese plate (her fave)! They met at Barbrix in Silverlake and closed down the restaurant. Sparks were flying and they knew they both wanted to see each other again. After weeks of butterflies and the best kisses in the world, they naturally fell into each others lives perfectly. Just 1 month later, Rachel invited Steven to her birthday where he dove right in with all the Temkos and friends. From then, it was on! The following weekend they booked a getaway to SF for July 4th. On Stinson beach under the sun, they fell in love. That summer they began to make frequent trips to Encinitas and Steven got a crash course of the Temko Family. They also made a trip to Delray Beach, Florida and Rachel learned all things Gringer. The connection and closeness grew quickly, even Ron Temko gave Steven his blessing only knowing them as a couple for a few months. When you know you know! Even Knolls and Mila quickly started calling him Uncle Stevie! 475 days after their first date, Steven proposed to Rachel on Moonlight Beach in Encinitas surrounded by family. Like Harry said to Sally, "When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with someone, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible"!
