Sarah Bolter and Jameson Wilder met online using the free dating website plenty-of-fish.com. Perhaps it was the cool online screen names they used that neither of them can now remember, but somehow they noticed each other and decided to meet in person. Their first blind date took place at Harry’s in San Francisco conveniently on “half-priced-bottle-of-wine-Tuesday.” The date ended after three hours and an empty wine bottle.
After that first evening, they couldn’t wait to see each other again. Their relationship developed over the next couple of years while Sarah was living in San Francisco and Jameson was residing in Belmont. They moved in together in July 2014 and currently call San Mateo home.
The Proposal!
Jameson picked out the perfect ring and planned to surprise Sarah with a marriage proposal during their post-Christmas trip to Seattle. The trip got off to a bumpy start for a variety of reasons but everything came together when Jameson got down on one knee in front of the iconic Space Needle. Sarah of course said YES! and they celebrated together at hotspots in downtown Seattle.
Matron of Honor - Nicole Skabar
Sarah met Nicole over 13 years ago during her second year at Chico State when they lived in the same apartment complex. Nicole and Sarah have been friends through it all, up, downs and in-betweens! Nicole has always been there for Sarah, especially for those 3am phone calls! Sarah and Nicole have had some great times together. Sarah could not imagine this day without Nicole by her side.
Bridesmaid - Katie Fralick
Katie and Sarah became close friends during their 8th grade Washington DC trip. They have been friends for over 17 years! Their friendship has made it through all those awkward stages of jr high, high school, boyfriend breakups, and girl drama. Katie and Sarah always know how to have a good time and Sarah cannot wait to celebrate her most important day with Katie by her side.
Bridesmaid - Megan Bolter
Megan is Sarah's brother’s wife and Sarah's sister (in-law). The first time Megan and Sarah met Sarah knew they would get along! Sarah loves having Megan as part of our family and especially as her sister!
Bridesmaid - Cary Wilder
Cary is Jameson’s sister-in-law (Lucas’ wife). Cary is the most friendly and open person Sarah has ever met. Cary has graciously invited Sarah into the “Wilder" life and made her feel part of the family from day one.
Best Man - Lucas Wilder
Lucas is Jameson's older brother. Jameson shared a room with Lucas his entire life and some how Jameson is not sick of him. Sarah and Jameson spend most of our free time with Lucas, Cary and their twin monsters, they even go on vacation with them! Besides being Jameson's brother, he’s been one of Jameson’s closest friends.
Groomsman - Steve Wilder
Steve is Jameson's oldest brother. Even though they never shared a room together, Steve and Jameson were roommates at the “Hillman House” together. Although Steve doesn’t live near by anymore, he will always have a presence in Jameson's life.
Groomsman - Justin Bolter
Justin is Sarah’s older brother and Jameson's soon to be brother-in-law. Justin and Jameson get along well, as he has the same chill, laid-back personality that Jameson has. We look forward to the fun times to come with Justin, Megan, & Sam!

We are leaving on our dream honeymoon Monday night after the wedding – and we CANNOT wait!
We will first enjoy an adventure of renting a car and staying in an AirBnB in Papeete, Tahiti. Yes, thankfully they drive on the same side of the road! We plan to explore the island and try some local food.
Next, we will get on a Windstar cruise for 7 nights that travels from the main island Papeete to 5 other islands, including Bora Bora. After we enjoy our first Christmas as Mr. & Mrs. aboard WindStar cruise we will then head to Moorea Island which is a 45 minute ferry ride from the main island.
We plan to celebrate the New Year in our overwater bungalow! Ahh! We are so excited for this adventure together and amazing vacation!
