Stephanie Sides &
Geoffrey
Their Story:
Stephanie & Geoffrey were married
on May 3, 2008.
How They Met: Stephanie & Geoffrey have lived
and worked in various San Joaquin Valley towns (Tehachapi,
Bakersfield). They ultimately connected with the Central
Coast when they lived in SLO while Geoffrey was a student
at Cal Poly. Prior to moving to SLO, their paths first crossed
while camping at Lake Isabella with mutual friends, Cy and
Gloria. Gloria planted the seed of romance by daring Stephanie
to connect with Geoffrey. Well, that very day Geoff-anie
(Geoffrey/Stephanie) shared their first kiss and their relationship
quickly blossomed.
The Proposal: Almost exactly 5 years later, Geoffanie
vacationed in Kauai (this couple is always on a trip!).
While strolling on a beach, with soft hotel music reaching
them, Stephanie found herself swooped up in a romantic dance
on the sand. Moments later, romantic Geoffery dropped on
one knee with the formal proposal, to which Stephanie replied
... yes!

big day.
