Becca and Bryan are the type of people you meet and fall madly in love with. They are a welcome invitation. When you show up where they are you feel at home. Becca and I met in college and within moments we were soul tied. From cartoons drawn on the back of homework assignments to nightly walks to 4 years crushes in the cafeteria and relationships gone wrong we knew our friendship would last a lifetime.

Bryan met Becca through a mutual friend in the Air Force and their long distance love blossomed and led to the most romantic of wedding days set in the beautiful mountains of Virginia.

It had been years since Becca and I sat in the same coffee shop sharing the same moment and phone tag had become our best. Then one day our phone tag turned into an actual phone call that announced the greatest news I’d heard in a long time. Becca and her beloved Bryan were going to be stationed in Manhattan Beach which is just over an hour from our new home.

I was beyond thrilled and we have not stopped seeing them every time we are up there since.
