From Olympic ice to forever. 💍🏅⁠
⁠

⁠
Their story is one of shared ambition, resilience and finding connection in the most unexpected place: the Olympic Village. ✨⁠

A love story straight out of a movie. ✨

From a first date at Greens Restaurant that Frankie thought went "okay" (spoiler: it went perfectly) to a surprise proposal in front of the Notting Hill bookstore in London, Frankie and Ryan’s journey has always been cinematic. 📖

For their big day, they returned to where it all began in San Francisco. They said their "I dos" under the iconic rotunda of San Francisco City Hall before celebrating with an intimate lunch at Greens. 🥂

"As LGBTQ+ people, we don't take the right to be married lightly," Frankie says. "I am thankful for those who paved this path before us to allow us to have a family and be with who we love." 🏳️‍🌈

“Nothing fancy, just love!” When Stephanie and Ashley planned their Maine wedding at The Glen House at Sunday River, they traded traditional gowns for custom bridal pajamas and invited their guests to join the party in matching velvet sweatsuits.⁠
⁠
From a "first look" with their pets, Finnegan and Winnie, national park signage and cookies, blankets for guests, to a rainbow smoke bomb celebration at peak foliage, this wedding was a masterclass in staying true to yourselves.

True love often arrives when we least expect it—sometimes with a single swipe, sometimes through life’s most challenging moments. For Daniel and Michael, it was both. What began as a chance match on a dating app in 2020 quickly revealed itself to be something deeper, stronger, and destined. Their connection grew through shared laughs, meaningful conversations, and a resilience that would later become the foundation of their relationship.⁠
