Lauren and Anthony’s story began at Sacramento State, where they crossed paths through Greek life. But it wasn’t until a few years into college that fate (and a little tequila) finally brought them together. You know the saying, what happens on spring break stays on spring break—well, Lauren and Anthony missed that memo. Their romance sparked in Mexico in 2019, and they brought it back stateside, kicking off a whirlwind of formals, fun, and "casual dating" (emphasis on the air quotes). Fast forward to 2020—cue the pandemic, Zoom calls, and an extremely exclusive Halloween party (by exclusive, we mean Anthony, his best friends, and one very special guest—Lauren). That night, their “casual” dating turned official, and the rest is history. From navigating a relationship through lockdowns, college graduations, nursing school, new jobs, and new cities, these two have been through it all together. In 2022, they made their biggest move yet—packing up and heading to sunny San Diego to start their next chapter. With dream jobs secured and a new place to call home, they made things really official by adopting their fur baby, Chowder (aka the real boss of the house). And now, here they are—ready to say I do and celebrate their greatest adventure yet, with all the people they love most!
