Our Wedding

Over a decade ago, Sam and Ivan crossed paths in the drive-thru of a Panda Express. What seemed like an ordinary day transformed into something extraordinary when they shared an unexpected connection. Their journey continued as they connected again through a mutual friend, but life led them on separate paths, and they eventually lost touch.Fast forward six years: fate intervened as Ivan found himself working right next door at Firehouse Subs. Their paths merged once more, reigniting the spark that had initially brought them together. Now, five years later, they are joyfully celebrating their wedding in the warmth of their home, surrounded by love and laughter, with their golden retriever, Ziggy, by their side.
