Our Wedding

Tina and James’ story began at Wabi House. She was busy managing the floor, and James was a regular (often alongside his good friend, Peony). At first, Tina thought James was already taken, so their conversations stayed light and casual. Still, there was a connection and a few shy smiles along the way. Eventually, James asked for Tina’s number — with a little encouragement for her to say yes. Three days later, they went on their first date. What started as a casual afternoon plan quickly turned into a late night they didn’t want to end. The conversation flowed effortlessly, and it was clear something special was beginning. Not long after, James invited Tina to his niece’s birthday, where she met his family for the first time and felt instantly welcomed. From there, life together just fit — sushi dinners, Mavs games, late-night poker bets, and plenty of travel. They’ve shared many memorable trips with friends and family, from Cabo to cruises, but their favorite memory is traveling to New York together, just the two of them. Almost two years later, at a Christmas party Tina had thoughtfully organized, their families came together for the first time. Under the glowing tree sat a large wrapped box. When Tina opened it, a balloon shaped like a wedding ring floated out, and as she turned around, James was down on one knee. The room filled with cheers, popped champagne, and tears of joy — the perfect way to begin their forever. Now, they’re so excited to start this next chapter — and even more grateful to be sharing it with the people who mean the most to them.
