When she wasn\u2019t studying, she and Mr. Sun spent the first years of the pandemic bonding in their studio apartment. They passed the time eating ice cream, a shared favorite dessert, and watching travel YouTubers \u201ctalking about the adventures we also wanted to go on together,\u201d Mr. Sun said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Over the next few years, the lifelong travel fans made good on their dream, completing adventures across six continents, including the \u201cbucket list experience,\u201d as Mr. Sun put it, of hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in 2022. A year later, on a trip to Portugal to celebrate his birthday and Ms. Liu\u2019s final semester of law school, Mr. Sun proposed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Sun, who grew up in the Dallas suburbs, has a bachelor\u2019s degree in mathematics and in business administration in business honors and quantitative finance from the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin. He currently works remotely as an engagement manager at the consulting firm Monevate, which is based in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Ms. Liu, who also grew up in suburban Dallas, has a bachelor\u2019s degree in rhetoric and writing and a law degree from Harvard. She is a litigation associate in the Washington, D.C., office of Kirkland &#038; Ellis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">When it came to a wedding location, the couple, who now live in Washington, \u201cwanted to do something that was a bit out of the ordinary,\u201d Mr. Sun said. At the time, they\u2019d traveled to five continents, with plans to visit Australia the following summer. As the final continent left to cross off, Antarctica immediately came to mind, but they weren\u2019t sure if, legally, marrying there was actually feasible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Things ramped up after graduation when the couple moved to Boston in the summer of 2020 so Ms. Liu could begin law school at Harvard.
