We met in 2019 through mutual friends and ended up talking and laughing until three in the morning. From that night on, we’ve been inseparable. For the first six months, we dated long-distance between Redding and Chico, but it didn’t take long to realize that being apart just wasn’t for us. I eventually moved to Redding for a while, but we both knew our hearts were in Chico — and that’s where we built our life together. In 2021, we added our golden retriever, Honey, to the mix, and she quickly became our first “baby.” Since then, our families and friends have blended together, and life has only gotten sweeter. We can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter surrounded by all the people we love most.
