A preppy, pop-cultured, pop-and-lockin' marriage running on Earl Grey tea, scones, brie, and surprisingly, fast food and hip-hop. Oh, and did we mention she's a Filipino princess-turned-pauper from New York and he's a down-to-earth Carolina boy? Oi vey.
The word that's most frequently used to describe them is "cute." You'll believe this about them very easily, but wait till you hear about their REAL LIFE challenges as an interracial, blue-meets-red, slightly-under-the-poverty-line married couple.
Why PEARL?
{He} gave her a pearl engagement ring -- passed on from his mother. It is also symbolic of where she's from -- the Pearl of the Orient, and what she's like -- petite, delicate, loving everything posh but not flashy.
Why STRIPES?
{He & she} love everything preppy. Had they thought of it earlier, they would've been the brainsandboobies behind the awesome blog "Unabashedly Preppy." Stripes are also timeless and effortless... which, in their opinion, is the essence of beauty.
Why NEON?
{He} loves pop culture and hip-hop videos. {She} loves British pop and limoncello. They also met just a stonesthrow away from the Neon streets of Timesquare.
