Emily and Will
June 1, 2024
In December of 2019, Will figured he knew Emily well enough to introduce her to his (strange but wonderful) family. This photo was taken by Will's brother Stephen on Christmas Eve in Ollantaytambo, Peru.
Emily and Will's shared love of cycling has taken them to nearly every corner of their beloved California. These trips have often involved late nights in their Mazda hatchback heading to obscure locations - such as this trip to Lee Vining in the Eastern Sierra to ride Tioga Pass.
In the depths of the pandemic, Will and Emily drove across the country to surprise Will's parents in Boston. No cross-country road trip would be complete without a few indelible memories, such as sheltering from hail storms in Badlands National Park, Will's quest to find a vegetarian meal in the Texas panhandle, or a pit stop in Lake Tahoe (picture here) to ride a hot lap of the lake.
For Will's 30th birthday, Emily took him to a raw dairy farm outside Bend, Oregon. Will excelled at milking the cows...Emily, not so much. On the way back, they stopped off at Crater Lake National Park.
In May 2022, Will and Emily got engaged on a small island in the middle of Huntington Lake. Will's Stio jacket is just one in a long line of Emily's jackets that he has appropriated and then proceeded to lose.
Emily's favorite holiday is Halloween, so she loves to come up with elaborate costume ideas. Luckily, Will is always game. For Halloween of 2022, Will dressed up as his celebrity alter-ego, Lord Farquaad, and Emily dressed as Fiona. This past Halloween, Emily dressed up as Oppenheimer and Will as 80's Workout Barbie. That picture didn't feel quite as appropriate for the website, though!
Will and Emily spent the summer of 2023 in Tuscany doing "market research" for their own wedding (at a Californian "Tuscan Villa").
We can't believe our wedding is coming up so soon!
