Our wedding ceremony will take place at the distinguished DLA residence in Sainte-Mere-Eglise, where the groom will be adorned in his 1944 Paratrooper attire and the bride in a stunning 1944 inspired wedding dress. The ceremony will be a heartfelt tribute to love, honor, and history.

Attire:
While the groom and bride will be dressed in 1944 themed attire, we encourage guests to join the fun by wearing period-appropriate outfits. However, summer business casual is perfectly fine if you prefer. The goal is to have a fun, relaxed destination wedding where everyone feels comfortable and festive.
Additional Activities:
In the week leading up to the wedding, a variety of engaging activities will be planned to ensure a memorable experience for all. An activity signup sheet will be available, allowing guests to choose and pay for the activities that interest them.
We kindly request your RSVP by January 31st to help us ensure all arrangements are made in due order. Details and further information will be available on our forthcoming website.
