Ellis Peters

BRIDE

Ella Gold

Ellis and Ella had their first date at Sunset Cliffs in San Diego in 2021. Somehow Ella trusted Ellis enough to sit on a bench overlooking the ocean in the dark for 2 hours.

They talked non stop and scheduled their next date for a few days later…

Early on, they bonded over their shared interests in spirituality, the outdoors and entrepreneurship…

But most importantly, their simple sense of peace they felt while spending time together.

Ellis introduced Ella to Otto..

and Ella introduced Ellis to Hilda and Jasper…

Ellis introduced discussions around meditation, random business ideas, marketing, philosophy, and Detroit Sports…

And Ella introduced a lot of discussions around Astrology, Acupuncture, Chinese Herbs, Tarot and her ever dynamic social life…

They went on some trips together, including Joshua Tree (x3), Northern Michigan (x2), and NYC…

After about 2.5 years of dating, they decided to move in together...

Ellis left his long time apartment in Ocean Beach, and they moved into a small home in North Park, San Diego.

Around this same time, Ellis took his interest in Judaism further by formally joining the tribe (after 1.5 years of intensive study that continues to this day)

Ellis and Ella’s shared love for Judaism’s spirituality, rituals and culture brings them closer every day.

After getting permission from Ella's Dad, Rick, and brother, Roee, Ellis proposed to Ella at the same location that they had their first date- Sunset Cliffs.
