Our story began at the University of Georgia, where fate intervened and brought us together on a blind date during our Junior year (Steven rocked a Hawaiian shirt that night)

Shortly after our initial dates, Lauren embarked on an exciting internship in the heart of New York City. As summer drew to a close, Steven took a leap of faith and asked if he could visit Lauren in the Big Apple.

Our adventures continued as we finished our senior year together and both landed in Atlanta after graduation. However, as they say, all roads lead to Hollywood, and a year later, we found ourselves in sunny LA.

And two years later, we set up camp together in Santa Monica, and the real adventure began.

In 2022, our lives took an unexpected turn when we adopted Bernard, who, let's be honest, is the furriest and cutest third wheel anyone could ask for.

Now, onto the big question, why Hawaii? In 2022, we embarked on a whirlwind trip to Kauai that left us swooning. The people were as warm as the sand, and the island's beauty was beyond words.

But the real plot twist came in May 2023 when Steven decided to pop the question in at one of our favorite places in the Palisades, just ONE day before our second trip to Hawaii.

As we landed in Maui the next day, we knew we'd found the perfect place to tie the knot. The island welcomed us with open arms and left us awestruck.

We can't wait to share the warmth and beauty of Hawaii with all of you as we say "I do" in this magical place. So, pack your leis and get ready for a wedding adventure!
