The Dates

Nine Years, One Date

Some of what follows was luck. The rest, they chose, every single time the door opened again.

2015
Adam and Audrey at The Krush 92.5 radio studio, holding wine bottles in front of a signed wall.

They first met on the air. Neither imagined it would become the beginning of their story. They were living separate lives then, and the timing wasn't theirs. Not yet.

October 2017
Adam and Audrey at The Krush 92.5 radio studio, holding wine bottles in front of a signed wall.

Two years later, they ran into each other on a Friday night in downtown San Luis Obispo. Audrey was putting together a fundraiser for people displaced by the Napa fires. Adam asked if he could help promote it on the air. She said yes.

The following Wednesday, she came into the studio to talk about the fundraiser. When the segment wrapped, Adam sent a text.

Adam
Hey Veggie Butcher invited me to come in tonight to try their food. Never been there and they are my guest tmrw. You wanna join? Thinking 730‑8ish
Audrey
Sure. I think I'll be more towards the 8 side if that's ok…
Adam
Sure thing
October 18, 2017. Neither of them knew yet that the date would matter.

Dinner ran long. Over nightcaps at Black Sheep, Adam leaned in to kiss her cheek. She turned her head. It landed somewhere better than either of them planned.

Audrey
Home safe. Thanks for the great evening. Let me know when you get home safe.
Adam
Glad you are — was just gonna ask you. You're awesome.
Adam
Home safe.
Audrey
Perfect. I had so much fun.

A single set table with a gold cloth and one rose, tealight candles trailing across the empty restaurant floor.

One year later, on the same date, Adam arranged for them to return to the place where it all began. Veggie Butcher had closed for good, but for one night, the empty restaurant became theirs again. He brought in a single table, had dinner delivered, and they sat in the very same spot where they shared their first date.

August 14, 2022
Adam kneeling on the terrace above the Neptune Pool at Hearst Castle, proposing to Audrey.

At Hearst Castle, at Adam's favorite place on the estate (and world), Casa del Mar, he asked the question with the ocean and hills stretching out behind them. Thanks to a little help from the foundation's executive director, they had the entire place to themselves.

Audrey in the pool afterward, laughing, showing off her ring.
She said yes.
October 18, 2026
Adam and Audrey with their dog, riding in a vintage motorcycle sidecar through the vineyard.

The date was never a coincidence. Nine years after their first dinner, Adam and Audrey will be married on the anniversary itself. The day that started their story will now begin its next chapter. And this time around, they're asking you to join them.

Their story did not begin all at once. It took a few chance meetings, one well-timed text, and the patience to let the timing become theirs.
