How We Met

Zack and Rachel met at San Diego State University. Both Zack and Rachel were athletes: Zack played baseball and Rachel ran cross country & track. One day, Zack was walking across the bridge and swears he saw this tall blonde track girl in purple spandex "glowing." He soon found out that was Rachel, and couldn't wait to meet her. After asking her track teammates about her for most of the fall semester, he finally was introduced to her in study hall one afternoon. Fast-forward to only like a year and a half later, they finally started dating and the rest is history!

Our Engagement

02-08-2020

With the tremendous help of Cat Potter, Zack planned a trip to Big Bear with our closest friends. Rachel was completely unsuspecting, as Zack also planned a summer Maui trip that she thought was for a proposal. Instead, Zack tricked Rachel for months including going on fake golf outings to go ring shopping and ask Rachel's father for his blessing. Fast-forward to Big Bear Saturday night, we all decided to take photos on our balcony with the beautiful mountain backdrop. When it was Zack & Rachel's turn, Zack then said, "Wait, I have something I want to say first: Rachel, you are my best friend, I can't imagine life without you, I love you, will you marry me?" Rachel's response: "Wait, are you serious?? YES!" She then grabs the ring right out of the box HAHA. As if this night wasn't perfect enough, Zack rented a private room for dinner at Knottinghams Tavern and invited her family and even his mom for another surprise. Rachel will never thank Zack enough for this & Zack will never be able to surprise Rachel like this ever again! :)

Our Lives Today

Rachel & Zack live in an apartment together in beautiful Oceanside, California. Zack is a Product Line Manager for golf accessories at Cobra Puma Golf and Rachel is a Physical Therapist at Longevity PT. In our free time you'll catch us competing in everything from fantasy football to cornhole, watching sports, exploring new hiking trials and restaurants in San Diego, and planning get-aways to Temecula or the local mountains!
