Back when they were both 19 years old in 2014, Sam and Nat met at UCLA. After 5 quarters of taking the same Chemistry series but never knowing the other existed, Sam and Nat got together at a party (we mean, through friends...).

For the last 10 years, there's been graduations, surgeries, years of long distance, multiple apartments, secret wedding (surprise!), new jobs, new schools and innumerable "when are you getting married????".

We know our story is a little unconventional as in we've technically been married for 3 years and have yet to be officially engaged by the time this website is published, but we are very excited to be celebrating with you. So you can all stop asking us "when?" and get ready to party!

Due a combination of the pandemic, need for health insurance, and love (of course!), we decided to sign the legal documents to be married in 2021. We tried to keep this quiet but to forces beyond our power (cough cough, MOMS), our elopement got leaked. So even though we're technically already married, we're happy to be able to publicly celebrate our marriage with you.
