Our Wedding

We are so excited to celebrate this moment with our closest family and friends. As far as how we got here...

We're getting married!

After years of attending the same events in college and running in adjacent social circles, our paths finally crossed in April of 2017. I started asking people, "who is David Shim and how have I never heard of him?" He was the guy that everyone opened up to about their problems. He lit up the room, his laugh was contagious, and no one had a single bad thing to say about him. To our luck, we found out that we would be taking summer classes in the buildings next to each other. David started walking me home from class (or picked me up in his car if he decided to skip that day), which eventually led to lunch dates at Madam Mam's and late-night study sessions at PCL. At this point, we had established that we were just friends (to which our friends probably rolled their eyes). But he quickly became my best friend. My favorite person. Everything with David was just so easy, I almost couldn't believe it. It felt like we had known each other for years. One day, I realized that I couldn't live with myself if I let him go. I confessed that I wanted to be more than friends...and the rest is history!!

The beginning

David officially asked me to be his girlfriend on September 22, 2017 (does this date sound familiar?). We became a family of 3 in 2018 with our sweet puppy Sophia. For the next few years, Sophia kept David company in Oklahoma City, OK while he was getting his Masters in Genetic Counseling. During that time, I went back home to Abilene, TX for PA school. After 3 years of being apart, we are finally back together again in Austin, TX - our home. With a lifetime of memories ahead of us... ...What better way to celebrate our 8 year anniversary than a wedding in Greece with our favorite people?

**Please ensure your passport is up to date. Many countries require that your passport be valid for at least 6 months past your trip's end dates.**

Q + A

There are many beautiful options for accommodation on the island of Santorini. The cliffside locations are a bit more expensive, so please feel free to have a look in other villages / areas such as Pyrgos, Kamari, and Megalochori that offer more competitive prices. The east (beach) side of the island offers more relaxing vibes, while the west (caldera) side boasts stunning sunset views. Wherever you choose to stay, we are happy to arrange transportation to and from the venue in Megalochori village. Below is a list of recommended hotels &amp; villas, however, there are also other hotels and Airbnbs in the area that may better fit your needs. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions!
