Elsha + Drew’s Wedding at The Lighthouse At Glen Cove Marina | Vallejo, CA
Elsha and Drew met in 2016, when they were both working at Starbucks. It all started when Elsha had the opportunity to interview there and that is where she first saw and met Drew. After her interviewed, the former manager offered her a drink on the house. Drew was a barista and took her order at the register, “a tall iced soy green tea latte”, is what she had ordered. He ended up making a frappuccino instead. She didn’t care for the mistake that he just made, but more interested in him. She ended up getting the job and they became co-workers and friends. It took them a couple of years to let each other know that they liked each other. It had happened at one of their co worker’s birthday party. Drew was there and was having a little too much to drink and he shared how he felt towards her. Confident and tipsy "I like you, lets go on a date" he asked. She respectfully declined and said "no thanks, you don’t like me, you're just drunk". The next following day, Drew texted her that he wasn’t drunk and would like to take her out on a date. She felt like it was unreal because she had liked him for so long without him knowing. Of course, they went out on a date and officially became boyfriend and girlfriend. Two years of dating and falling in love, he was on his knees asking her to marry him during their getaway trip to Lake Tahoe with families and friends.
