Our Wedding

We met the way all great modern love stories begin, on Tinder. Yes, that Tinder.Edgar swears this part is important—apparently, he distinctly remembers swiping right on Adriana. He recalls confidence. Intention. Purpose. A bold romantic moment of the thumb.Adriana? She does not remember swiping at all.According to Adriana, they simply appeared in each other’s lives, like fate got tired of waiting and said, “Okay, surprise!” Adriana opened the app one day and there he was—already matched, already messaging, already existing as if he’d been there the whole time.So, while Edgar remembers making a choice, Adriana prefers to believe destiny logged into her account and handled things behind the scenes. Either way, the result was the same: a match that turned into (ignored) messages, messages (that finally got replied to) that turned into dates, and dates that somehow turned into forever.He swiped with intention.She swiped with mystery.And somehow, against all odds (and her questionable memory), it led to her making the move from Kansas to Texas to finally live together, both of them adopting a pug named Pickles, and later to him asking for her hand in marriage. Nos conocimos como comienzan todas las grandes historias de amor modernas, en Tinder. Sí, ese Tinder.Edgar jura que esta parte es importante; aparentemente, recuerda claramente haber deslizado a la derecha a Adriana. Recuerda seguridad. Intención. Propósito. Un audaz momento romántico con el pulgar.¿Adriana? Ella no recuerda haber deslizado en absoluto.Según Adriana, simplemente aparecieron en la vida del otro, como si el destino se hubiera cansado de esperar y dijera: "¡Vale, sorpresa!" Adriana abrió la aplicación un día y allí estaba él—ya emparejados, ya enviando mensajes, ya existiendo como si hubiera estado allí todo el tiempo.Así que, mientras Edgar recuerda haber tomado una decisión, Adriana prefiere creer que el destino inició sesión en su cuenta y se encargó de las cosas entre bastidores. De cualquier manera, el resultado fue el mismo: un match que se convirtió en mensajes (ignorados), mensajes (que finalmente recibieron respuesta) que se convirtieron en citas, y citas que de alguna manera se convirtieron en para siempre. Él deslizó con intención.Ella deslizó con misterio.Y de alguna manera, contra todo pronóstico (y su cuestionable memoria), eso llevó a que ella se mudara de Kansas a Texas para finalmente vivir juntos, ambos adoptando un pug llamado Pickles, y más tarde a que él le pidiera matrimonio.

Our Story

Photos

Best friends with the bride since day one—literally born just two days apart. We’ve grown up together through every phase of life, from diapers to big life moments. Even now, with 421 miles between us, our friendship hasn’t missed a beat. Distance may separate us, but a lifetime of memories, inside jokes, and unconditional support keeps us just as close—plus, it gives us more to talk about on each of our FaceTime calls.

Laura Soto

Best friends with the groom since sophomore year of high school. Friendship brought together by video games, cold beers, and those legendary late-night talks that somehow solve everything and nothing at all. Whether we’re locked into a game, cracking open another round, or sitting around talking way too late, we’ve always had each other’s backs. The years have gone by, but the tradition hasn’t changed. Just two best friends, good conversations, and plenty of memories made after midnight.
