Our Story
On March 14th, 2020 in Mammoth Lakes, California, a special place that both Derek and Caroline frequented throughout the years, and the day the mountain shut down, our story began. Derek was celebrating his birthday weekend with buddies, Caroline was enjoying a girls ski trip when both groups met in the middle of a thrilling night out at a Saint Patrick's Day themed Lakanuki bar.
The two hit it off immediately, bonding over their love of Mammoth Lakes, sushi, and connecting over their Irish roots. Over the course of weeks to come, Derek and Caroline would continue to speak frequently, hangout and incite a fast friendship that led to an exciting romance and unbreakable bond.
Two and a half years after meeting, Derek proposed to Caroline in the place they first met overlooking Mammoth Mountain during sunset. The rest, as they say, is history!
