We're Getting Married

Our relationship started during COVID and with Natalie being a hardworking ICU nurse, it was hard for us to meet in-person. Fortunately, Theo convinced Natalie to try a FaceTime date, which was awkward in the beginning, but then turned into an enjoyable experience. After another FaceTime date and hundreds of text messages, on June 26, 2020, Natalie agreed to an in-person date with Theo and from there, the rest is history. Over the next months, our relationship developed quickly through a shared love for food, movies, and tv shows. Despite Natalie working night-shift hours in the ICU, she always found a way to spend time with Theo. As 2021 came around, we began to meet each other's friends, starting with Natalie's roommate, Phoebe, and then her best friend Loren. Natalie then had the opportunity to meet many of Theo's friends at Allie and Scott's wedding in Sonora. Since then, we've had a lot of fun times with each other's friends. From surprise birthday parties to Natalie's first Stagecoach Country Music Festival, our friends have and always will be a big part of our relationship. Along with friends, our relationship grew stronger thanks to our families. Theo was able to quickly mesh with Natalie's family thanks to Uncle Long and their shared love for food and beer on Sundays. Natalie was embraced by Theo's cousin Errie, who couldn't stop telling the family how great she was. Soon Theo's family saw how kind and loving she could be, and as Theo's dad would say, Natalie might be the only person that can control some of Theo's wild behavior. From the surprise engagement to the combined family holiday party in San Diego, it meant the world to us to see our families embrace each other and help our love grow stronger. There's a lot of stories in between and we can't wait for more to come! We hope all of you can join us for our wedding and look forward to celebrating with everyone soon!
