It all started in 2009 when Adam took note of Natalie's phone number during a prank call. They started texting from that point and eventually went on several dates in 2011. After the first few dates, he knew that he had found a great girl and wanted to continue exploring the relationship. Despite attending rival schools, they dated throughout their high school years which involved going to each other's sporting events, enjoying holidays, and hanging out with the families.

After high school, they attended college at College of the Sequoias. Adam attained his Associates Degree and proceeded into the police academy where Natalie worked tirelessly to support them while living together in Hanford. Adam eventually completed the academy and got hired, which led them to move back to Visalia. A couple of years later, they purchased their first home together. Natalie decided to take on a different supervisor role at Starbucks which led her to expand her leadership skills. Natalie and Adam then settled into their new jobs.

Finally, after about 12 official years in the making, Adam asked Natalie to be his wife. Of course, he couldn't have done it without the constant interrogation by friends and family regarding when the big day was going to come. Luckily enough for Adam, Natalie said "Yes" and was then at peace knowing they were finally getting married. Now, the big day is almost here. We just wanted to take the time and say thank you to everyone who has loved us, supported us, and been with us on our journey through love. We worked hard, but we definitely could not have done it without everyone around us. The best is yet to come!

If you were thinking of giving a gift to help us on our way, a gift of cash towards our honeymoon would really make our day. However, if it's a gift you find, please be assured we will not mind!
