Wedding Day

Our Wedding

Some August day in 2012, two people named Austin and Ariel clocked in to work at a grocery store. Austin was having a hard time trying to grab something out of a cart, and the first thing Ariel ever said to him was, You struggling over there? And boom, they fell in love. 

How We Met

In January 2025, Austin popped the question at Del Mar Beach - a significant place for the couple that holds many memories! This was the spot where they had their first kiss and where he asked her to be his girlfriend. He enlisted the help of their friends, Matt & Layla, to conspire a brunch double date and a walk on the beach. Ariel really wanted to show off her new boots that day and would, for the record, like to state that she would never wear boots on the beach ever again.
