Our Story

Cole and Mariana met in the summer of 2020 in Vancouver. On their first date, they had a picnic with cheese, obviously, and he promised that life with him would mean Pacific Northwest adventures all year long. Mariana promised that he would be the one having to keep up with her. They both delivered on their promises. Together they have run peaks, beaches, and superhero races. They have camped in remote places that only a kayak can take them to. They have sailed the Howe Sound and the Indian Arm. They have danced till dusk in the most epic Halloween costumes.


After three years of adventures, it was kind of obvious that they wanted to spend their lives together and Cole brought Mariana back to Trout Lake, the place where they first met and where everything started, and in the most romantic twinkle light style, he proposed.


They kicked off their engagement with a splash, jetting off to Baja California Sur for a dreamy vacation, where they had a magical time watching whales jumping in the pacific, swimming with manta rays in one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and snorkelling in the farthest North coral reef in America.


They are now ready to dive in the most exciting adventure yet. In the company of their families and closest friends, they will tie the knot in an intimate ceremony in one of their favourite places on earth: Villa de Leyva. To be followed, of course, by an epic dance-a-thon!
