Our Wedding

Once upon a time...

in 2018, Ricky and David crossed paths in the heart of Los Angeles. Unknown to them, what began as simple messages would soon blossomed into a deep connection—one built on laughter, trust, and countless late-night conversations. For two years they were inseparable best friends, unaware that their friendship was quietly turning into the beginning of a love story. Just before they began dating in 2020, life placed them in the same apartment complex, turning them into next-door neighbors—a coincidence that felt like destiny’s gentle nudge. A few butterfly-filled stomach dates later, Ricky asked the question that would change everything: “Do you want to come down the rabbit hole with me?” David said yes, and together they stepped into a world of wonder, where love felt a little like magic. In the five years since then, they’ve built a life filled with cozy nights, shared adventures, and celebrations that make every season sparkle. They’ve also found home within each other’s families, something that has always meant the world to them. And in full romantic cliché, Ricky proposed to David on Valentine's Day 2025. Their story continues as all the best fairy tales do: with love, laughter, and dreams still unfolding. For Ricky and David, this is the start of their Once Upon a Dream.

Érase una vez…

En 2018, Ricky y David se cruzaron en el corazón de Los Ángeles. Sin saberlo, lo que comenzó como simples mensajes pronto floreció en una conexión profunda, construida sobre risas, confianza y un sinfín de conversaciones nocturnas. Durante dos años fueron mejores amigos inseparables, sin darse cuenta de que su amistad se estaba transformando silenciosamente en el comienzo de una historia de amor. Justo antes de empezar a salir en 2020, la vida los colocó en el mismo complejo de apartamentos, convirtiéndolos en vecinos puerta con puerta—una coincidencia que pareció ser una suave señal del destino. Después de unas cuantas citas llenas de mariposas en el estómago, Ricky hizo la pregunta que lo cambiaría todo: “¿Quieres bajar conmigo por la madriguera del conejo?” David dijo que sí, y juntos dieron un paso hacia un mundo de maravillas, donde el amor se sentía un poco como magia. En los cinco años desde entonces, han construido una vida llena de noches acogedoras, aventuras compartidas y celebraciones que hacen brillar cada estación. También han encontrado un hogar en las familias del otro, algo que siempre ha significado el mundo para ellos. Y, en el más romántico de los clichés, Ricky le propuso matrimonio a David el Día de San Valentín de 2025. Su historia continúa, como todos los mejores cuentos de hadas: con amor, risas y sueños aún por cumplirse. Para Ricky y David, este es el comienzo de su Érase una vez un sueño.
