Rancho Valencia Real Wedding: Michelle & Alex

Michelle Nishikubo, 29, and Alex Morales, 29, both of San Francisco, met at a career fair during their last month of college. On July 4, 2014, Alex surprised Michelle with a post-brunch proposal as a friend took their photo. The couple threw a party with 130 guests at Rancho Valencia to celebrate their wedding.
