On a hazy late-afternoon in August, Sybil and Brian said their vows in the company of ten close friends. The sun cast a warm glow off the Pacific as they stood at the cliffs of Lands End.
The couple met at Stanford while pursuing their medical careers (Sybil an ER Doctor and Brian in Biotech), where Brian remembers Facebook stalking her and enlisting his friends to help plot how to ask her on a first date. When Brian proposed in Croatia in 2019, the couple imagined eloping overseas, but once the pandemic hit they knew it just wasn’t in the cards. So they threw the timeline out the window.
While deciding how to celebrate their anniversary, the perfect wedding date revealed itself. They would wed on their five year anniversary, at five months pregnant! The distinctive ceremony included a dear friend officiating the wedding, the ring bearers delivering candy ring pops, and the San Francisco fog rolling in as the party went back to the couple’s home for ramen.
