Katy and I met for the first time during an awards dinner party at the US Open in New York.  I can still remember how her eyes danced and sparkled as we chatted through the evening, her warm and inviting smile capturing my full attention.  The next day we had an opportunity to continue our conversation over cocktails venturing deep into the bar scene in New York's Meatpacking District.  As the night progressed it became clear how similar our lives were despite our distances (Florida and San Diego).  We were both in need of a life change and the thought of finding "true love" was something that we felt had passed us by.  We parted ways the next day and communicated often over the course of the coming months growing our trust and feelings for one another -- it was clear that fate had struck and we were destined to be together.  On a trip to San Diego shortly thereafter we fell head over heels in love and the rest is history....I made the trek from Florida to San Diego to be by her side and we've spent the past 3 years growing our love and sharing our lives together.  My son Zane and daughter April have equally fallen for Katy and we're excited to firm up our committment as a family this coming July. 

Our ceremony will be relaxed and comfortable.  My best friend Wil has been designated as an Officiant for the day and he'll lead us through our nuptials.  Please be on time -- you won't want to miss how beautiful Katy will look in her wedding gown as she sails down the aisle!

Our reception will be a vibrant celebration of our love, our friends and family, and our new life together as Mr. & Mrs. Arrington!  We'll have plenty of drinks, dinner and dancing so plan for a good time!  The reception will be held immediately following the ceremony inside the beautiful Mission-style courtyard.  We hope you'll be able to join us!

Starting over is never easy -- but sometimes its the right thing to do.  We've been blessed to have a "second chance" and we'll never take that for granted.  We'll also never forget the love and kindness that all of you have shared with us as we build our lives around one another.  Thanks for visiting our wedding website and honeymoon registry.  You've all touched our lives in positive ways and we can't wait to share our special day with you!
