We met on Friday, April 7th at Simmzy's in Venice Beach. After a fun weekend of bowling, going to the pool, laughing & walking the beach, we were immediately inseparable. This photo was taken just a couple of weeks later when Justin left for a work trip in New York. This was our 1st weekend apart. We spent a lot of time texting to get to know each other whenever Justin had to travel.

This was our very first trip together! We went to Catalina Island for the weekend. We brought Cooper, rode around the island in a golf cart & went to the beach. Little did we know that 4 years later, to the day, we would be engaged on a different beach!

Christmas Day spent riding camels in the Sahara Desert of Morocco! This was the beginning of our love of travel & adventure together.

Justin surprises Laura with a trip to Hawaii for her birthday! We drove the beautiful "Road To Hana", biked down a volcano, jumped off lava rocks into the ocean & ate our weight in banana bread & pina coladas.

Justin & Laura adventure to Peru! We hiked Machu Picchu, rode horses & went white water rafting in Arequipa & took a plane over the Nazca lines.

Laura meets Justin's family in person for Thanksgiving!

We moved in together in Marina Del Rey, CA right before the pandemic! It brought a whole new level of closeness to our relationship.

Justin proposed to Laura on the beach in Tulum, Mexico! She thought they were there to scope out places for her retreats. It was already one of her favorite places and now it holds a very special place in both of their hearts!
