Our Wedding

Our&nbsp;Story We&nbsp;first&nbsp;met&nbsp;through&nbsp;mutual&nbsp;friends,&nbsp;but&nbsp;after&nbsp;about&nbsp;a&nbsp;month,&nbsp;life&nbsp;took&nbsp;us&nbsp;in&nbsp;different&nbsp;directions.&nbsp;The&nbsp;timing&nbsp;just&nbsp;wasn’t&nbsp;right.&nbsp;Fast&nbsp;forward&nbsp;eight&nbsp;months&nbsp;later—we&nbsp;reconnected&nbsp;(though&nbsp;Chris&nbsp;likes&nbsp;to&nbsp;joke&nbsp;that&nbsp;I&nbsp;“circled&nbsp;the&nbsp;block”&nbsp;🤭). That&nbsp;night&nbsp;is&nbsp;one&nbsp;we’ll&nbsp;never&nbsp;forget.&nbsp;We&nbsp;ended&nbsp;up&nbsp;at&nbsp;a&nbsp;rooftop&nbsp;club,&nbsp;and&nbsp;somewhere&nbsp;between&nbsp;the&nbsp;music&nbsp;and&nbsp;the&nbsp;lights,&nbsp;it&nbsp;felt&nbsp;like&nbsp;the&nbsp;world&nbsp;faded&nbsp;away.&nbsp;The&nbsp;crowd&nbsp;blurred,&nbsp;the&nbsp;noise&nbsp;quieted,&nbsp;and&nbsp;it&nbsp;was&nbsp;just&nbsp;the&nbsp;two&nbsp;of&nbsp;us&nbsp;in&nbsp;the&nbsp;middle&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;dance&nbsp;floor.&nbsp;In&nbsp;that&nbsp;moment,&nbsp;I&nbsp;knew&nbsp;he&nbsp;was&nbsp;the&nbsp;one. Chris&nbsp;was&nbsp;a&nbsp;little&nbsp;hesitant&nbsp;at&nbsp;first,&nbsp;but&nbsp;after&nbsp;a&nbsp;few&nbsp;months,&nbsp;we&nbsp;became&nbsp;inseparable.&nbsp;Our&nbsp;first&nbsp;year&nbsp;together&nbsp;was&nbsp;unlike&nbsp;anything&nbsp;either&nbsp;of&nbsp;us&nbsp;had&nbsp;ever&nbsp;experienced—full&nbsp;of&nbsp;fun,&nbsp;adventure,&nbsp;and&nbsp;moments&nbsp;that&nbsp;made&nbsp;us&nbsp;realize&nbsp;we&nbsp;had&nbsp;found&nbsp;something&nbsp;truly&nbsp;special. And&nbsp;here&nbsp;we&nbsp;are&nbsp;today,&nbsp;ready&nbsp;to&nbsp;say&nbsp;“I&nbsp;do,”&nbsp;surrounded&nbsp;by&nbsp;the&nbsp;people&nbsp;who&nbsp;have&nbsp;been&nbsp;part&nbsp;of&nbsp;our&nbsp;story&nbsp;all&nbsp;along.

Wedding Party

*&#160; Hi everyone! We truly want our wedding day to be enjoyable and stress-free for all our guests. With that in mind, we kindly ask that our wedding remain an adult-only celebration. We understand this may require extra planning, and we appreciate your understanding and support. We look forward to celebrating this special day with you!

*&#160; If you were marked with a plus one but will not be bringing a guest, please update your plus one status. This will help us keep an accurate headcount for wedding planning purposes. Thank you in advance for your help and understanding!

*&#160; Our wedding will be outdoors, so we kindly ask that guests dress in semi-formal attire. Think dressy but comfortable perfect for an outdoor evening of love and celebration.

* All RSVPs must be submitted by September 1st, as our guest list will close after that date. Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation.

* I would like to mention that the venue parking is very limited so car pooling is encouraged but we may offer a shuttle transfer to and from depending on how many guests will utilize that option.

* Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift of all. We are not registered for tradition gifts but If you wish to give something more, we&#8217;ve created a Honeyfund to help us celebrate our honeymoon and future adventures. We thank you in advance and appreciate the love.

* We&#8217;re happy to share that an open bar will be available for our guests, featuring beer and wine. A coffee and beverage station will also be provided for you to enjoy throughout the evening. Don't forget to tip your bartenders.
