Wedding Day

Our Wedding

Brayden and Liv met during their sophomore year at the University of Oregon. They became close friends and spent a lot of time together, running in the same friend group. It wasn’t until their senior year that Brayden finally asked Liv on a date and they made things official. After graduation, Brayden moved to New York City to begin dental school at NYU, while Liv moved to Seattle for work. They spent the next year and a half navigating long distance before Liv moved to New York to join Brayden. One cold, winter afternoon while walking through Central Park, Brayden asked Liv to marry him. Liv is notoriously hard to surprise, but with the help of their closest friends, Brayden was able to pull off the ultimate surprise. Afterward, they shared a quiet moment sipping champagne at the Central Park Boathouse before heading to a nearby restaurant, where Brayden had gathered all of their closest friends to celebrate. Together, they've always loved playing cards, rooting on the Ducks, traveling, going to concerts, and trying new restaurants. After four years in NYC, Brayden and Liv have relocated to San Diego, where Brayden is starting his career as a dentist. While they will miss their friends and the energy of New York, they are excited to be back on the west coast and settle into their new life by the beach.
