My husband and I were married at The Prado in Balboa Park on April 12, 2014.

I knew I wanted to get married in Balboa Park from the first time I visited San Diego, almost 7 years ago. I saw the wishing well at The Prado and thought, "I'm going to get married here someday. Just have to find the guy."

A few months later I moved to San Diego from Michigan and a year later started dating my now husband, Saum Poorsaleh.

The park has been and will now forever be a very special place to me and my family.
