About Ginalyn & Scott

Nobody was swept off their feet...

We met as students in late September 1995 at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

It wasn't love at first sight...no cupid's arrow or bolt of lightning.  Scott thought she was small (but cute).  Gin thought he was old (but nice).  We were merely friends.

In the summer of 1997 we vacationed in Hawaii with Abegail, our maid of honor.  We became better friends as a result of the trip.

There was no dramatic turning point but a gradual...almost glacial...blossoming of our friendship into something more.  We started to spend more time together.  We officially became a couple on May 11th 1998.

We are best of friends who happen to be in love.  On October 28th 2006, we begin a new chapter in our lives together.  We are honored to share this special moment with our families and close friends.
