Our Wedding

Our adventure began in the most modern way—through Snapchat. Little did we know that a simple exchange of messages would spark a connection that would change our lives forever. Even though we faced the challenge of being 290 miles apart for eight long months, our love only grew stronger with each passing day. With a shared passion for traveling, we made the most of our time together, savoring every moment whether it was through weekend getaways or sending each other snapshots from our respective lives. Our three lovable dogs, Remington, Koda, and Wesley, became part of our journey. Every video call, every letter, and every plan to bridge the gap brought us closer to one another. Although the miles were sometimes difficult, they only fueled our desire to be together. Our travels have taken us to breathtaking places, but its the moments spent in each others company that well cherish forever. As we write this next chapter of our lives, we can’t help but feel excitement for the future ahead. We invite you to celebrate our love and the beautiful journey we’ve shared, as we take this next step into our happily ever after!

Our love story 

Nuestra aventura comenzó de la manera más moderna: a través de Snapchat. Poco sabíamos que un simple intercambio de mensajes encendería una conexión que cambiaría nuestras vidas para siempre. Aunque enfrentamos el desafío de estar a 290 millas de distancia durante ocho largos meses, nuestro amor solo se hizo más fuerte con cada día que pasaba. Con una pasión compartida por viajar, aprovechamos al máximo nuestro tiempo juntos, saboreando cada momento, ya fuera en escapadas de fin de semana o enviándonos instantáneas de nuestras respectivas vidas. Nuestros tres adorables perros, Remington, Koda y Wesley, se convirtieron en parte de nuestra historia. Cada videollamada, cada carta y cada plan para acortar la distancia nos acercaban más el uno al otro. Aunque las millas a veces fueron difíciles, solo alimentaron nuestro deseo de estar juntos. Nuestros viajes nos han llevado a lugares impresionantes, pero son los momentos pasados en compañía del otro los que atesoraremos para siempre. Mientras escribimos este nuevo capítulo de nuestras vidas, no podemos evitar sentir emoción por el futuro que nos espera. ¡Los invitamos a celebrar nuestro amor y el hermoso camino que hemos recorrido, mientras damos este siguiente paso hacia nuestro “felices para siempre”!

Q + A

We’ve reserved a block of rooms from November 6th to November 11th for our wonderful, road-tripping, suitcase-packing guests. 🧳✨ If you’re not planning to turn it into a week-long getaway (no judgment), you’ll need to call the hotel directly to book just the nights you want. Apparently, websites aren’t great at reading minds.

Comfort Inn Kearney I-80

There is a parking lot conveniently attached to our venue for guests to use. We kindly ask that you only park in handicap spaces if you have the proper permit, as the individuals Torrance supports will be attending and need accessible parking. Thank you for your understanding and kindness!
