Our StoryOur Story

It all began with a Tinder swipe in late 2016. Neither Sarah nor Paul were expecting fireworks... just two people tired of dating but curious enough to give it one last shot. Their conversations got deep fast, from zodiac signs to oddly perfect parallels: both born in January, both from families of three children... the small stuff that made them slowly wonder if the universe was up to something. Soon after, Sarah left the "comfort" of Los Angeles and took a chance driving down to Orange County. And while she was definitely curious about Paul, she might have fallen in love with the free parking and wider streets just a little bit first. Over time, what started as fun grew into something deeper- built on patience, trust, and a whole lot of character development. Life wasn’t always smooth. There were career pivots, long commutes, new neighborhoods, moments of uncertainty, and even the loss of loved ones. But through every move, job change, and growing pain, Sarah and Paul kept showing up for each other one season at a time. It’s also important (IYKYK) to mention a major milestone for Paul: buying his dream car- a Subaru WRX STI (Don’t worry, he still drives the Prius on weekdays). Since then, late-night drives have become one of their favorite ways to unwind- sometimes with music and deep talks, other times just enjoying the quiet. Their love lives in the small things: binging shows, hitting up arcades, movie nights, food festivals, and making space for each other- to breathe, to grow, and occasionally, to just rot in bed. But there’s been adventure, too. Paul introduced Sarah to fishing, snowboarding, white-water rafting, ATV rides, go-kart racing, and even skydiving (He swears he wasn’t trying to kill her, just create unforgettable memories). And somewhere between the high speeds and cold water… Sarah may or may not have started enjoying golf. (Don’t get too excited... it’s only a little.) You might think Paul’s dragging Sarah everywhere, but the truth is, he’s giving her the chaotic kind of peace she never knew she needed. By 2022, Paul moved in with Sarah and they began building their life together. Through every change, every hard conversation, every little win, and every big moment- they’ve had each other’s backs. Always. Then on July 13, 2024, Paul 'finalee' proposed on a gorgeous cliffside at Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes. Sarah said yes (after a pause for dramatic tears), only to be driven off into the sunset to a surprise rooftop celebration in North Hollywood. After nearly a decade of building a life full of meaning, adventure, and so much patience, they’re finally ready to tie the knot. Sarah & Paul are getting married! It’s been a journey full of change, courage, freeway traffic, lots of French fries, and deep, steady love. A relationship that wasn’t rushed- but rooted. One that’s grown through every season, every challenge, and every celebration. They’re ready for the next chapter- and they absolutely cannot wait to celebrate it with you!
