Tell us a little about you and your beloved.

We met five years ago in Las Vegas. We are both in the medical field and love dogs so we had so much in common. When we were only dating for five months, we adopted a dog together named Dasher. He proposed three years later in the Cayman Island. One year later, We got married in Lake Tahoe because of the amazing outdoor backdrop. The wedding planning was so smooth, stress-free, and was so much fun!
