On a sun-kissed day at the enchanting Secret Garden by Wedgewood Weddings in Phoenix, Arizona, Addie and Daniel celebrated a love story that began in a high school chemistry class in 2013. Their wedding was a beautiful testament to years of shared passions, adventures, and an unbreakable bond.


A Love That Blossomed Over Time

Addie and Daniel’s journey started in high school when they met in chemistry class—a fitting beginning for a love story full of chemistry. Both soccer players, they bonded over their shared love for the game and quickly became close friends.

In September 2014, after Daniel moved to Phoenix for college soccer, their friendship turned into something more. Through long-distance visits and years of growing together, their relationship only strengthened. Addie eventually attended ASU in 2016, bringing them closer, and by 2022, they decided to take the next step and move in together.

From traveling and trying new restaurants to watching soccer together, their love flourished through shared experiences. On September 3, 2024, Daniel got down on one knee and asked Addie to spend forever with him—a proposal that marked the beginning of this exciting new chapter.


A Special Moment Before the Ceremony

Before the ceremony, Addie took a quiet moment to share a heartfelt time with her brother and father, soaking in the day's emotions. Just before she walked down the aisle, her mother joined them in prayer, surrounding Addie with love and support on this beautiful summer day. It was a touching reminder of the strong family bonds that shaped her journey to this moment.
