Marina and Pascal’s Kona Kai Resort Wedding

Marina and Pascal had quite the celebration! They tied the knot if front of their friends and family at the Kona Kai Resort in San Diego. The story of how they met was repeated over and over again during their wedding, because it is just that good. In fact, it deserves repeating again! It all began a few years ago when Marina was in NYC visiting family for Thanksgiving. They decided to go out at night, which is when fate stepped in, as they were at the same hot spot that Pascal and his friends were at. Pascal noticed Marina from across the room, and knew he had to approach her. To his surprise….he got shot down!! Totally gutted, he decided to try again later in the night. This time, Marina noticed his persistence and caved a little. She told him that they were leaving to head to another spot in town, and Pascal opened her cab door for her as she drove away. Then!….Pascal got in a cab right behind her and managed to get to the next destination first!! They ended up chatting the night away with undeniable chemistry. He discovered that Marina lived in Los Angeles, and ironically enough (call it fate!), he was going to be there the following week on business. Sure enough, he sought out Marina and took her on another date. That was the first of many trips to visit Marina on the west coast, and he eventually moved there to be with her. Pascal is a man who knows what he wants!! Now they are happily married with their cute pup, Frida. Congrats to Marina and Pascal, for a true love fairytale and an extremely fun wedding!
