Ali & Elliott in Calistoga, CA
Both starting their freshman year at UC Berkeley, Ali and Elliott became fast friends after they met in the dorm hallway. Going to the gym and watching old movies soon turned romantic and by sophomore year, the pair started dating. They stayed together during college and even dated long distance while Ali was getting her master's degree in Pasadena.
The Bride Ali Wong, 28, fabric/finish assistant
The Groom Elliott Otto, 29, certified public accountant
The Date September 22
Then in May 2006, Ali visited Elliott in Berkeley and they took a run just as they used to in college. As the couple reached the peak, Elliott dropped to one knee and proposed. Eighteen months later, the pair wed in a colorful, rustic wedding at Calistoga Ranch.
