On their first Valentine’s Day as a couple, Richter gave Wayland an arrangement of vegetables from the produce department, a gesture that made a friend of Wayland’s take notice. “That’s why I had to marry him.” Grocery shopping there quickly became something they loved to do together. “He introduced me to Berkeley Bowl,” Richter said. Wayland was a Bowl regular at the time they met. At least they have their engagement photos. Given that they plan to marry in New Mexico in September, their first-look photos at the Bowl are now off the table. Richter, 29, will soon be opening a retail store. They now live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where Wayland, 32, is doing his medical residency. ![]() They met through the Cal marching band and a subset of those band members who were also rock climbers. The couple, who met as UC Berkeley undergraduates in 2011, started dating in 2012. “My choosing Jeff in the pile of pineapples is his favorite photo,” Richter said. “Our wedding photographer was stoked on the idea, so if anyone wants to do it there…” Richter said. (If you’re unfamiliar, “first-look photos” are the images captured “when a couple sees each other for the first time on their wedding day,” according to Brides magazine.

While Cal students, this couple considered the Bowl their playground, building entire meals around bags of expired produce from what they deemed “the squishy shelf.” Carolyn Richter and Jeff Wayland wanted to get married at Berkeley Bowl, but had to settle for engagement photos there instead. In honor of Valentine’s Day, here are their stories. Our story about them prompted three other couples to write in, saying that the Bowl played such a big role in their love stories that they too took photos there. Now we know for sure, they were not the first. Travis’s mother was – of course – wearing her son’s number 87 shirt, while popstar Taylor was suitably attired in a white button-up tank top over which she wore a Chiefs red and white bomber jacket.As fun and as playful as Melody Yu and Joey Chiang’s engagement photo shoot at the Berkeley Bowl grocery store was, neither we nor the Bowl could confirm that they were the first couple to pose for a photographer in the produce aisles. In pictures, they cheered and clapped together, with Taylor at one point leaning over to grasp a fellow pal of Travis’s hands as they shared a laugh together. #taylorswift #swifties #1989 #swifty #news #entertainment #celebs #kansascitychiefs #traviskelce #blankspace ♬ Bounce When She Walk – Ohboyprince Do you think this is just a coincidence?
