Eric and Savannah met at the “Harvard of the West” (Chico State University) on a memorable Wine Wednesday. Eric spotted Savannah walking into a friend’s apartment and knew he had to meet her. A quick introduction, some lighthearted persuasion, and a few glasses of wine later, he secured an 8:00 am hike-date for the next morning. It was the first of many "adventure dates" to come!

Finishing college and new jobs then led to a year and a half long distance relationship which only strengthened their love.

Adventure Dates brought them to Hawaii, Ireland, Joshua Tree, Yosemite, South Carolina, San Diego, Tahoe, and even a goat farm in Oregon.

Eric proposed on the Stanislaus River, a place that holds some of their favorite memories.

Whether camping under the stars, playing in oceans, rivers and lakes, discovering quirky eateries or staying in together with Maple (sweet but very naughty bernadoodle), life is always better side-by-side.

Eric’s easygoing, thoughtful nature combined with Savannah’s spicy adventurous spirit has turned a chance meeting into a lasting, loving partnership — and now they’re ready to begin their greatest adventure yet: choosing each other, forever.
