Wedding + Reception

Our Wedding

When Marcus first saw Abbie, he immediately knew he had to talk to her. But despite his best efforts, he ran into a small problem-- he had reached his daily limit of swipes. That's right, like most couples in their late 20s both attending the same university, Abbie &amp; Marcus met on Hinge. Fortunately, Abbie popped back up a few days later and Marcus got to shoot his shot. On their first date Abbie arrived at Land Grant Brewing, saw a dark haired man across the parking lot and walked up to him. She nervously began talking to him while waiting in line. They were chatting for a while, but he kept asking questions that didn't quite make sense. Abbie was confused until he finally said "I don't think I am who you think I am." After actually asking his name, Abbie realized that this was in fact not Marcus, but another random stranger also waiting for mystery Hinge date. Abbie saw Marcus and immediately noticed that he was much cuter than the other mystery male. Fast-forward three years through a global pandemic, two grad school programs, career changes, &amp; more, you're coming to our wedding! We can't wait to celebrate with you!
