Samantha and Thomas met by chance one evening at the 70's speakeasy, Good Times at Davey Wayne's. In hindsight, it's precisely the place you'd expect them to find one another. Despite living and working on opposite sides of the city, the two started dating, crisis-crossing through traffic for dinner dates and crisscrossing back to check on their pets. Over the years (and through one pandemic), they've solidified their strength as partners. Their passion for care, community, and fun is present in everything they do. One of their favorite sightings while camping in the San Gabriel mountains is yucca blossoms, which appear only once in the plant's 50-year lifespan. Seeing the luminous flowers light up the hillsides is a visual interwoven with their memories of falling in love. This March, Thomas and Samantha will be welcoming their friends and family to join them in a night of dancing, toasts, and celebration as they tie the knot.
