Tell us a little about you and your beloved.
Tony and I met in 2013 when we both worked at California Pizza Kitchen. It was love at first sight, truly. I was 17 and a senior in high school when we met, while Tony had graduated from high school a few years before. Despite this, I still describe him as my high school sweetheart. We’ve been attached at the hip ever since. We celebrated 10 years together a couple weeks before our wedding. We are best friends and we keep our circle tight. We spend weekends with our parents and siblings after working hard all week at our 9 to 5 jobs. The love of our life is our five-year-old chihuahua named Theo – he means the world to us. Our dream is to own a bunch of land and have a farm where we can raise our kids and have lots of animals.
What was the best part of your day?
Walking down the aisle.
What else would you like to share about your big day?
Tony and I did our best to stay together throughout the day and we did a good job. It was so amazing having him by my side throughout the day.
Advice from the couple:
Don’t spend the extra dollar and extra time on the small details. No one will notice – not even you! Make sure your wedding feels authentic to you and your partner, and don’t let it feel forced.
Anything you would have done differently?
The food.
