Our Wedding

Our love story began when two people swiped right. From the moment we met in downtown Turlock during the summer of 2022, we knew we had found something special- something worth cherishing forever.   We truly believe that life has a beautiful way of bringing the right people together at the perfect time. Though our journeys started separately, every twist and turn led us straight to each other—and now, we can’t wait to walk this path together hand in hand, best friends for eternity.   We thank god for his many blessings over the last 3 years and for bringing us together at a time when we needed one another the most. We can’t help but believe that fate—and maybe a little guidance from our parents in heaven—helped bring us together.   It’s in the quiet moments, the shared dreams, and the endless support we give each other that make our relationship so special.  We are so excited to celebrate the beautiful love we share with our closest friends and family as we begin this new chapter together. Cheers to love, Synae & David

If you know us, you know how much we adore our dogs, Thor-Thor, Molly Noelle (daddy’s princess) and Meeko Dwayne (the baby). They run the house, steal our hearts daily, and have even attempted to help with wedding planning (though their expertise is mostly in napping, pooping and begging for treats). While they won’t be there in person, they’re definitely there in spirit. We love them very much. They hold a special place in our hearts.

I met Ashley at MJC in Mr. Estradas math class over 12 years ago. God knew I needed an angel during that time and sent me Ashley and her family. She is more than just my best friend; she's been a sister to me in all aspects of my life. Ashley is the person who knows me better than anyone else—the one who celebrates my victories, lifts me up in tough times, and fills my life with laughter. We have shared the highest of highs and the lowest of lows; and I couldn't have gotten through life without her. Ashley and her family took me under their wings and became my second family. I’m beyond grateful for their unwavering love and support. Cant wait to have you by my side and celebrate the highest of highs, the day I walk down the isle. I love you sis

I met Bri in Nursing school and she instantly became a little sister to me. Her infectious personality and positivity is what helped get me through the toughest times. We laughed and cried together during school and always celebrated those small victories throughout our journey. She has been a positive light in my life and has continued to be one of my biggest supporters. I cherish our long lasting friendship of 10 years. I had the honor of being her bridesmaid at her wedding and I’m blessed to have her celebrate one of the happiest moments in my life as well. I love you Bri, thanks for always being by my side.

Watching Juliana grow to be such a smart and beautiful young lady has been one of the proudest moments of my life. I was 19 when I got pregnant with Juliana, I was a young girl navigating life and becoming a mother at a young age but it motivated me to be the best mother and give her a better life than what I had. Life took us on a roller coaster at times but there was nothing we couldn’t over come together. When David came into our lives he truly showed Juliana so much kindness and love, that’s when I knew he would fit into our little family so perfectly. Protecting us from every storm.  Juliana, You will always be a shining light in my life—smart, compassionate, and unbelievably strong. Your kindness touches everyone around you, and I couldn’t be prouder to call you my daughter.  I love you Juju Bee

Over 25 years…what can I say. Shes literally one of few people who I can say has seen me grow from a youngster to an old man. Always there to turn to when I need some guidance or to be checked and put in my place. Stefanie is as real as they come, but those are the ones we need to keep around in our lives. From lifelong friend to my trainee and now my partner at work, it’s crazy where this journey we call life has taken us.

It’s Scott Block, everybody knows Scott Block. All jokes aside, from the highest of highs and lowest of lows, Block has been there right by my side. From what was a police softball friendship, now has become more than friendship itself. He’s a brother. Though we are not blood, there’s nothing in this world that could not convince me of our brotherhood. We’ve both experienced growth in our careers and have been able to celebrate and enjoy them together. And as amazing as a friend he’s been, it’s been amazing to watch the father he has become. Our wedding day would not be complete without him there.

Always the funniest part of our friendship is that in the beginning, as strangers, we could not stand each other. Just a couple cocky meat heads on the softball field. But then, we realized oh so much how we are alike. Small friendship circles, few words, and a lot of action. Vic is the kind of friend, more like brother, that it does matter the time on clock or the day of the week, he would drop anything for the ones he loves. It’s been amazing to watch him and his family blossom and being able to always have them so close.
