How did you two meet?
We first met at a Stanford early admit reception in Colorado. That same group hiked a 14er together a few weeks later. We talked a bit and became friends, and then went off to college at Stanford. We talked a little on and off, but then our Junior years, we ended up living on the same floor of the dorm. There, J finally asked me (Maia!) out to coffee where we got to know each other better. Our second date was a hike, and as J wrote in his version of the story on our wedding website, “We’ve been hiking through life ever since :)” (https://www.theknot.com/us/maia-rocklin-and-jonathan-flat-jun-2024/our-story)

What was your favorite memory from your wedding day?
Maia’s answer: I think my favorite memory from our wedding day was the entrance to the reception after the ceremony. The energy felt electric, and I was so happy to have everyone in my life in one place celebrating the love that we found in each other. Holding onto his arm, knowing that he was my forever life partner, as everyone around us from all phases of our lives smiled and cheered - I’ll never forget that moment.

 
J’s answer: My favorite memory was having our first dance together. I loved being able to hold her close. It felt like everything else faded away and it was just us in that moment.

What is some advice you would give to couples as they plan their wedding day?
Oo this is a good question! I’d say, try to slow down and have fun in the planning process. Even things like putting together invitations for 8 hours can be fun with the right mindset. :) And try not to sweat the small stuff!

Where did you go on your honeymoon?
We went to Kauai and Maui! We stayed at the Hotel Wailea, Relais & Chateau and the Koloa Landing Resort. It was a great mix of relaxing while still having the option to go hike! And the food was amazing - highly recommend!
