Jasmine & AJ

AJ and Jasmine met in February 2015 through a mutual friend while Jasmine was living with family in the Bay Area. Initially, their meeting seemed ordinary, but through shared interests, they easily grew a friendship. By October 2015, after their first trip to the Big Island, they finally decided to make it official. Shortly after, in December, Jasmine fully invaded AJ's space in a tiny bedroom under the stairs. 

​​

As the early years went on (and their spaces got bigger), they found themselves checking the boxes they always talked about- AJ completed his time in the Army National Guard, Jasmine graduated from SF State, and, at some point, they found themselves driving cross-country to get their first fur baby. 6 months later, they rescued their second.​​

​​

Their relationship continued to grow and AJ's love for Jasmine only deepened over time. He soon realized another big box was ready to be checked. On January 20, 2023, at the first light of sunrise, after a killer speech, AJ dropped to one knee on the peak of Haleakalā and asked her to marry him. In-between sobs, she gladly accepted. 

​

Today, we are planning our wedding with our favorite people in mind, on an island that means a whole lot to us. While we celebrate this major milestone, we also want to share some of what we love, with who we love, because we simply would not be who we are without you all. 

​

We hope to see you there.
