erri and Joshua met at age sixteen. Though they may not have realized their connection as “true love” at the time, Joshua and Kerri would become partners in a lifetime of adventure and travel. While on vacation in San Francisco in March, Josh proposed to Kerri after a day spent walking around the city. The setting was ideal for a romantic moment: “The beautiful skyline stretched out behind us, the bay sparkled in front of us, and we had the whole park to ourselves,” Josh says. Kerri accepted the customcrafted ring, and later transcribed the words of his proposal into her Bible. The couple wed in June at Bellevue Baptist Church surrounded by shades of the bride’s favorite color—purple. They celebrated their union-and the city that made it all possible-at Central Station with a first dance to “I left my heart in San Francisco.”
“The scene of the proposal was perfect,” says Josh. Opposite page: Kerri and Joshua triumphantly left the Central Station amidst their guest’s sparklers. Right: Purple and white linens transform Station’s Hudson Hall. Above: The bride and her maids have a laugh before the ceremony.
