Sometimes when the elements around you seem chaotic, happiness will step right in to surprise you! Renata and Richard met several years ago while attending college and pursuing their medical degrees together. As Richard graduated with his degree, he moved back to the Bay Area while Renata stayed back to finish two more years on her degree. As Renata flew to see the love of her life, Richard. She ran into a snag with her luggage and from there on out, it seemed like everything was going wrong. As she walked with Richard to his car thinking about the bad day she had, she had no idea that Richard was about to make her day the happiest! As they approached his car, he got down on his knee and asked her to become his wife and she said yes!! She was so surprised and so happy that everything she was thinking about disappeared!

Renata and Richard exchanged their vows in a heartfelt ceremony held at the Church of the Good Shepard and their reception followed at Smith’s Landing Seafood Grill in Antioch, California. I am so happy for you both in your union of love! Congrats to the happy couple!!
