Cute story
“Omar and I went to college for four years together but had never met in person. Years later when we were dating we realized we were at multiple festivities and were in several group pictures together. Looking back we both realized if we had met in college we probably wouldn’t be where we are today. Goes to show you timing is everything! 6 years later, a house, two dogs and COVID we finally had our dream wedding”

Unique story
“We decided to have a destination wedding in Spain. We fell in love with the venue and where we had our welcome dinner (The Farm). We were overjoyed by how many people came across the world to see our love unite . We were expecting a smaller wedding given the distance and to our surprise we had 69 guests! The day was perfect! From the welcome dinner to the day of! There was so much love and happiness in the air.”
How did you meet
“Omar and I met at In n out as strangers. There wasn’t anywhere else to sit and there was an empty seat in front of him so I asked If I could sit. The day we met Omar was so shy and didn’t say a word to me so naturally I talked to his friend Shawn.
The day later I went with a couple girlfriends to hang out with few of their friends. Little did I know the friends house we ended up at was Omar’s. That day Omar actually talked to me and i realized he was sweet and mind. We talked all night and from there the rest is history.”
How did Omar propose
“On July 20,2019. Omar was acting very suspicious the week before and the day of. More quiet than usual. He asked me if I wanted to go for a drive. During the drive he didn’t say much and I had gotten car sick from going up a windy road. I was confused what we were doing and I suddenly had a fear that he was breaking up with me. I didn’t understand why he would take me to San Francisco to break up with me. We got out the car and went walking. We made it to the top where a couple asked if I could take a picture of them.
When I was done Omar told me he needed to tell me something…. at this point I realized “oh no, he is breaking up with me”. Still confused as to why he took me here to do so I was puzzled to say the least. When I snapped out of it and started listening to what he was saying I realized he was proposing. My brother and my best friend came out from hiding behind a rock and congratulated me. My family and his family met me at a restaurant (Mona Lisa) in the city.”
