Sofia and Reuben’s story began in 2018 in Austin, Texas, when they met while waiting in line for a concert at the South by Southwest Music Festival. Sofia was Seattle-bound after graduating, while Reuben called Vancouver home, but after crossing paths in Texas, it felt like the Pacific Northwest was always where they were meant to reunite. They began a long-distance relationship between Seattle and Vancouver, taking full advantage of their time together to explore both cities and embark on exciting adventures without ever falling into a routine. In January 2020, Reuben relocated to San Francisco, giving them the chance to discover new sights and soak up the California sunshine together. By 2022, Reuben had moved to Seattle, and they’ve cherished being in the same place ever since. Now, they share a beautiful home in Seattle, where they love cooking and hosting friends. On weekends, they bike around the city, seek out new bakeries, run through Discovery Park’s trails, forage for mushrooms, hike, and ski. Sofia and Reuben are excited to get married in 2025 and begin this new chapter of their lives together. With Sofia being Mexican, Reuben being Canadian, and both now living in the U.S., theirs is truly a North American love story!
