What are your day jobs?

Kent – Business at Software company, Amy – Marketing at Square

Where did you both grow up?

Kent – Dallas; Amy – Houston

How did you meet?

We met in NYC when Kent was visiting friends (he used to live there). Kent’s roommate went to school with Amy and they had many mutual friends before they met. Amy conveniently was flying to SF for work every week and they began dating semi-long distance.

Tell me about the proposal?

Kent had planned a “decoy” vacation for Amy – a trip to wine country with their dog Mochi. He built up the vacation so Amy thought that he would be proposing on that trip. Kent planned a camping trip a few weeks prior to that trip (Amy’s first time camping). After 12 miles of trekking, we arrived at a beach where we had a picnic. Amy was so exhausted that she passed out on the beach for four hours where Kent was able to run through the lines in his head. Since Amy never thought Kent would propose on a camping trip, she was surprised (and thrilled!)

Name a few places that are special to you. This could be a vacation, a concert, something you enjoy doing together locally, etc. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy; just someplace you have made memories together.

Banff (Amy’s 30th birthday gift to Kent was a surprise trip), Skiing in Tahoe, Taiwan (where our families are from)

When you can do anything you want to do, what do you do? 

We love being outdoors (skiing, hiking) and working out together (yoga, pilates)

What is your favorite music and/or songs that mean the most to you as a couple? A playlist of sorts would be great! And any stories are great too!

We’ve gone to Coachella together while dating and we love dancing + EDM!

What are your favorite foods/restaurants? 

Sushi is our favorite food. We love neighborhood joints where people know us.

Any pets? Tell me about them!

Amy had Mochi for 9 years before Kent officially adopted Mochi as his dog. He’s a 5 lb Maltese and will be in our wedding.

Anything else you would like for me to know?

We’re super goofy and have a ton of funny moments/inside jokes so we’d love our photos to be fun/playful.
