Our Wedding

On a rainy Saturday in January, our mutual friend Leslie organized for a group of friends to get together for an afternoon of ice skating. We both arrived only knowing a few people with our mutual friend unable to attend. Once we had our ice skates on and hit the ice skating rink- we realized that we were both amazing ice skaters. We enjoyed a conversation talking about sports, Dana Point, family and the BACHELOR!

How we met

For those that don't know- our first date lasted for 10 hours! Yes that's right- 10 hours!!! We say it was like several first dates in one. The first date took place a week after meeting ice skating. We met down at Dana Point harbor where we explored and even got interviewed for a local television show over lunch at Olamendi's, watched the sunset and ate again. Annie texted her sister that she was going to marry Mark one day.

Cozy up to a special someone aboard an authentic Venetian gondola, and relax with a glass of something sparkly as your charming gondolier steers you through the calm waterways and canals of Newport Harbor. Nibble chocolates, take in the scenery, and soak up the romance of this unforgettable outing.
Make your way down to the waterfront in Newport Harbor and step aboard a beautiful gondola. You might ride in a real rowing gondola with carved decks and ornate decorations that your gondolier propels by oak and oarlock, or you could request an elegant contemporary vessel with a silent electric motor to venture further through the harbor’s 6 miles (10 km) of waterways.
As you glide through serene canals and across the waters of the bay, enjoy gourmet chocolates and sip sparkling cider or even wine, if you opt to purchase a bottle or bring one along. If it’s chilly out, you can request an electric blanket to stay warm through the cruise, and if you’d like a little music to accompany your outing, your gondolier might even burst into song and serenade you on your way back to shore.
