Once upon a time, in the parking lot of Temple High School, two teenagers met and had no idea they were about to start a journey that would last a lifetime.

It all began when Ethan Lawson and Damara Garcia crossed paths during marching band practice. From there, they quickly became inseparable. From sharing lunch periods to staying side by side during band competitions, and talks about dreams and life, their connection grew stronger with each passing day. Still being reminded the first time they had found someone truly special that makes them laugh and feel like they could be their true self.

High school brought so many memories; the first date, prom, and all those little moments that made their bond unbreakable. Sharing their firsts together and facing life’s ups and downs hand-in-hand, learning and growing as individuals and as a couple.

As they walked through different phases of life; high school graduation, first jobs, college, and all the exciting milestones, they realized just how lucky they are to have each other side by side. No matter the challenges, they promise to always support each other, and now, years later, they’re more in love than ever.

And here they are today, on the most exciting chapter of their journey planning their wedding day! It feels like a dream come true to be marrying the person they’ve known since 17. Anticipating for the many more adventures, laughter, and love-filled days ahead as they continue to grow together.
