Friends gathered from all corners of the globe in Rhode Island for an extended weekend filled with love, laughter, and lots of surprises! They met in April 2009 at a charity 5K event hosted by mutual friends in the quaint town of Cardiff-by-the-Sea, California, just north of San Diego. They had both been living in Santa Monica for about a year prior to meeting, and were incredibly excited to spend the next two years exploring Los Angeles together. He proposed in May 2011, which kicked off a whirlwind summer. She said yes to both Grant and business school at Wharton and the adventure across country began.
