A PROMISE MADE
ST. VINCENT DE PAUL
friday, October 2nd
A CEREMONY OF FAITH
For Ash, the decision to receive the grace of marriage within the Catholic faith was both a personal conviction and a lifelong desire. Having passed this church frequently while commuting to work, she has long marveled at its magnificent California Churrigueresque architecture—a quintessential expression of the Spanish Baroque style. Our time in marriage preparation has been a deeply meaningful experience for us both.
As Matt continues to learn about the faith and Ash finds her own connection to it further strengthened, we are preparing our hearts for the unity we will share. We invite you to join us in witnessing the spiritual and loving significance of our vows as we become one.
INFORMATION OF THE CEREMONY
The bilingual ceremony will begin at 4pm, lead by Fr. Gary
Ceremony is estimated to be ~60 - 75 mins
There is free parking onsite and overflow parking lot as well. More information to come.
Address: 621 W Adams Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90007

A PASSION FOR THE ROAD
We share an appreciation for the beauty and engineering of the classic automobile. Ash, in particular, possesses an affinity for visceral thrill of a race. In another life, she might well have been a driver herself—a fact those of you familiar with her spirited approach behind the wheel will certainly recognize.
