Love stories typically “end” with a wedding.  This love story begins with one.  Back in 2012, both single, Mallorie was living in San Diego and Todd was living 300 miles away in Visalia, California.   They were both asked to be in their friends wedding party.  It was at this wedding on the East Coast that they were introduced.  Todd immediately asking his friend “why didn’t you tell me about the cute girl?”.   And then it began…

Once back in California, they began dating long distance.  There was a lot of traveling that first year- because they made sure to saw each other at least every other weekend.   Several months later,  there was a ring purchase followed by a romantic proposal. Mallorie was completely surprised… which was quite a feat for Todd to pull off.

They will be married this Spring at The Showcase Room in Tempe!  Stay tuned for wedding photos- its just a few short months away!
