Jen and Jesus met at work in 2015 and through many shared meals and happy hours as coworkers, they connected over their core values, common goals, and passion for food. After two years of friendship, they said, “Let’s give it a shot!” and they have been together ever since.
Throughout the years, Jen and Jesus have brought out the best in one another as cliché as that may seem. Jen broke down all of Jesus’s defenses and encouraged him to step out of his comfort zone as she dragged him along on all her travel adventures. In turn, Jesus’s chill and easygoing nature complements Jen’s spontaneous and energetic spirit.
In March 2020 amidst the global pandemic, Jen and Jesus decided to quarantine together, which only strengthened their bond. After figuring out that they didn’t want to strangle one another after spending 24/7 together in a 700sqft apartment, they ended up buying a house!
During their 6th anniversary celebration in Puerto Vallarta, Jesus popped the question! Jen knew it was coming, but the tears flowed nonetheless. After a week of eating, drinking, and basking in the Mexico sun, it was back to reality..and the daunting task known as wedding planning!
On August 12, 2024 (their 7th anniversary), Jen and Jesus officially tied the knot at the Old Orange County Courthouse, surrounded by their family and closest friends! They look forward to celebrating with all their loved ones during their upcoming wedding reception in November!
