The Bride... Stacy is the very definition of a multi-tasker. She is a full-time Children's Social Worker for Los Angeles County, a full-time doctoral student at the University of Southern California and momager of her teenage son. She has a tremendous heart and true passion for helping others, particularly young people. She loves the arts, loves to travel, being active especially outdoors, LOVES food and wine, and loves basketball :) The Groom... Noel is the life of the party! He's smart, funny and is extremely curious about the world we live in. Noel currently works in the oil industry but his entrepreneurial spirit is nudging him to pursue his life-long dream of working in real-estate. He enjoys music, photography, traveling, sports (Diehard Laker fan) and good food. How They Met... Noel and Stacy met seven years ago via an online dating site. Noel's profile showed up on Stacy's feed and she was instantly drawn in by his beautiful and piercing light-brown eyes. She sent him a message commenting on how those eyes seemed to peer through her soul. He responded ( 2 days later) wanting to talk on the phone. She obliged his request and the two talked for over three hours about everything from the Lakers, to politics to how he can "burn" in the kitchen. The two went on their first date about a week later, where he proceeded to tell Stacy that the wig she was wearing in her profile picture was awful (and to never wear it again LOL). It was clear that a connection was made that night, and that spark is still very evident today. The Proposal... On December 22, 2018, Noel and Stacy hosted a Christmas party at their home. After a very spirited (and extremely hilarious) White Elephant Gift Exchange, Noel proposed to Stacy in front of their close friends and family. It was an unforgettable moment for the two of them and they are beyond excited to take this next step in their journey together.
