Let's get this party started!

Stephen and Emily grew up about 10 minutes away from each other in San Antonio and attended the same elementary through high school, but didn’t meet until 2017 at the recommendation of a mutual friend. They locked eyes for the first time at Tigress, a cozy cocktail bar, while Rumble by Link Wray hummed through the speakers. It was pretty cool. They talked till bar close, then walked down the street to Epoch Coffee, not wanting the night to end. On the uncovered patio, in the rain, Stephen gallantly gave Emily his jacket and stole her heart.

After about 3 dates, Emily knew he was someone she could share her life with. In October 2020, Stephen put a ring on it in front of a small group of their best friends (and also a waterfall), in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. At last, Emily was free to start planning the wedding she'd been secretly planning for months already. Stephen and Emily now share a beautiful home, two beautiful cats named Ziggy and Rigby, a taste for frozen margaritas and horror movies, and love for all of y'all!
