Once upon a time at Humboldt State University (Go Jacks!), two athletes from different worlds crossed paths—Angelique, a dedicated soccer player, and Nathaniel, a passionate member of the football team. Though we met during the hustle and bustle of our senior year, we never expected our connection to blossom into a beautiful relationship.

As we navigated the final months of college, we discovered a surprising twist: our roots ran deeper than we thought. Both of our families hailed from neighboring small towns in California's Central Valley—Angelique's grandparents in Delhi and Nathaniel's parents in Atwater. To add to the serendipity, Nathaniel's uncle lived directly across the street from Angelique’s childhood ranch, where countless memories were made playing and exploring.

Despite our different personalities, we found a perfect balance in each other. We bonded over our love for snowboarding, hiking, and savoring delicious food and drinks with family and friends. Our adventure took an exciting turn when we welcomed our furry family members, Farley the dog and Kiko the cat, who bring endless joy to our lives.

Recently, we took a big step and moved from Kensington to our first home together in Brentwood, California. Each day, we grow more grateful for our journey and the life we’re building side by side. We can’t wait to celebrate our love with all of you as we embark on this next chapter together!
