Well, well, WELL!
Long time no chat friends....!
Planning a wedding is no joke. It's a marathon of notes, emails, vendor requests, patience, and interactions with family and friends. Unsolicited advice. Happiness. Love, and most of all the success of planning most girls' dream of "The Best Day Of Her Life" as she stated...
Kali and Grant met in college. Their junior year. Started off as "Study Buddies" as he told his mom, however, Kali told me she first met him at a party they were both at (he was wearing a Harbour Surfboard T-Shirt) which started the conversation.
Soon she'd bring him back to our neck of the woods (They both grew up miles apart, yet met out in college in the San Marcos-San Diego area).
The day I first met Grant I whispered under my breath....hmmm Kali Rapoza....has a cute ring to it...
And within 6 years he planned a grand proposal in Laguna Beach, CA.
When they decided they wanted a destination wedding we jumped in with all we had. The beginning of planning. How many people. Who would travel? What style did they want? The hunt for the perfect venue was first and foremost. Explaining to family and friends came second. We made their dream come true.
Their 7-year dating anniversary would land on 5/5/23. Ironic it happened on Cinco De Mayo in Mexico because they don't celebrate the way we do here, but what a party it was.
We're still waiting on their professional photographs, along with the videographer. But here are the few sneak peeks they did send along with a few given by friends and family.
Can't believe how fast the day goes. It's been almost one month!
Cheers to Mr. & Mrs. Rapoza!
