Chelsea & Evan’s Romantic Wedding at Dove Canyon Courtyard

Some love stories begin when you least expect them. Chelsea and Evan’s journey started on a dating app at the exact moment both of them were ready to give up on online dating. Thankfully, one simple question about pancakes changed everything. Their story eventually led them to celebrate their wedding surrounded by loved ones at the beautiful Dove Canyon Courtyard, one of Southern California’s most charming outdoor wedding venues.

A Bumble Match That Turned Into Forever

Chelsea and Evan met on the dating app Bumble at a time when both were ready to delete it for good. But Chelsea noticed Evan’s profile mentioned that he loved pancakes, so she asked him if he had ever been to Stacks Pancake House. That simple message sparked a conversation that quickly turned into something meaningful.

What started as a lighthearted exchange soon grew into a beautiful relationship built on friendship, laughter, and shared passions. Today, Chelsea proudly calls Evan her person, and Evan feels exactly the same way about her.

A Couple Who Loves Life Together

Chelsea works as a dedicated NICU nurse, while Evan teaches PE to TK through 5th grade students. Both of them truly love what they do, and that passion shows in their everyday lives.

When they are not working, they enjoy living an active lifestyle together. At the same time, they are perfectly happy spending a relaxing evening at home building Legos, watching Disney movies, or enjoying their favorite shows like Rick and Morty and Shoresy.

Evan also has a passion for drone photography, and Chelsea proudly supports his creative side. She describes herself as his biggest fan. Chelsea loves cooking, and together they enjoy finding joy in everyday moments, whether they are out exploring or simply relaxing at home.

Family is incredibly important to both of them. Even though both sides of their families come from blended backgrounds, everyone gets along beautifully. Their wedding day was a celebration not just of their love, but of the strong family bonds that surround them.
