I’ve known this groom, Braydan, since he was about 4 years old. He’s now 19, in love, and in the US Air Force. Before being stationed in Japan for the next few years, he wanted to make sure to marry his longtime girlfriend, Addison. He was only home for a week for his older brother’s wedding, so we headed to SF City Hall to make it happen and thought we had it all set and ready to go. Because he wasn’t being deployed and only being stationed, they couldn’t accommodate us — so we snuck up to the third floor and had his ordained dad marry them quickly on the spot. It was such a small intimate event, and we all celebrated after and enjoyed a meal with both families. It was top secret to not steal his brother’s thunder, so I’ve had to wait to share. This meant so much to me. I’ve been friends with his dad for 15+ years, and I was truly grateful to be apart of this day. Addison is incredible, and I felt so close to her family immediately. Also, love a girl who eats a street cart hot dog in her wedding dress. Those are my people. Special shoutout to San Francisco, where we saw a man’s nu***ck while he was bent over in the uber on the way to city hall. Definitely tracks for SF, and a memorable laughable moment for the three of us in the car.
Braydan I’m so proud of you, how you’ve grown, all you’re continuing to pursue, and that you bagged yourself an absolute gem. Addison, I love you already. Thankful to all family involved for letting me tag along and be apart of the crew 🥰🥹 cheers to The Cleavers!
