Our Story
How it all began
From a dance floor in San Jose to the green hills of Antioquia.
-
San Jose, California
One dance
We met in San Jose, and no, it wasn’t at a hospital, even though Trinique is a physical therapist and Juan Pablo is an anesthesia and pediatrics resident. It happened on a dance floor: Juan Pablo, bad dance moves and all, worked up the courage to ask Trinique to dance.
-
Sunnyvale ↔ Oakland
Across the Bay
That dance turned into dates, even though Juan Pablo lived in Sunnyvale and Trinique lived in Oakland, with most of the Bay Area in between.
-
San Francisco
Home
Eventually Juan Pablo moved closer to San Francisco, with a not-so-secret plan to get Trinique to leave Oakland. It worked: today we call San Francisco home together.
-
Our family
And Amie
Home also means Amie, our seven-year-old Shiba Inu. [How Amie joined the family, or what she’s like.]
-
Easter 2026
Growing in faith
Along the way, we’ve grown in our faith together while preparing for the sacraments, and Juan Pablo was confirmed at Easter 2026.
-
Conservatory of Flowers, Golden Gate Park
The question
Surrounded by flowers at the Conservatory of Flowers, Juan Pablo asked Trinique to marry him, and she said yes. [Optional: one detail from that day you’ll never forget.]
-
La Ceja, Antioquia
The next chapter
On September 25, 2027, we’ll be married in La Ceja, in the green hills of Antioquia, and we would love for you to be there.
