But their love story didn&#8217;t start until they lived across the country from each other: Barbara in New York and Julian in San Francisco. After doing long distance for a year and a half, Barbara made the big move to San Francisco. She says, &#8220;After a certain point, you just want to be able to tell each other goodnight without a 3-hour time difference.&#8221; Now, the couple has been happily living in San Francisco for seven years.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Julian&#8217;s proposal was both sentimental and sweet, taking place on the rooftop of their first apartment.

Making the day even more special, the bride&#8217;s best friend&#8217;s dad officiated the ceremony, and the couple wrote their own vows. &#8220;There&#8217;s something very meaningful about expressing your love to someone in front of the people that love you both and want to support you,&#8221; Barbara shares.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The reception was a vibrant celebration with bold floral centerpieces and d\u00e9cor, including lush greenery, bright flowers, and even disco balls over the dance floor.
