Our Wedding

The first time I met Brandon was at a small gathering after my meeting where he was visiting his roommate. Although our interaction was brief, I couldn’t help but admire how kind he was.

How We Met

Although we didn’t get to talk much that first night, Noemi was so sweet. I appreciated how she didn’t take herself too seriously. My roommate, Benji told me how beautiful her reputation was in their congregation. I didn’t know what to expect but I knew she’s the type of people I like to surround myself with. Loving and genuine.

As our friendship continued to grow, I began to notice how hard he worked to display different aspects from the fruitage of the spirit. He was known by all to be a patient, kind hearted, humble, and hard working brother. His Bethel crew and our mutual friends all had nothing but beautiful things to say about him. His genuine, positive, and spiritual outlook really impressed me. He had the reputation of always smiling, and always being joyful. I felt I was constantly learning from him. Plus, he always made me laugh!

Our Friendship

We quickly became part of the same friend groups; swing dancing, game nights, and just hanging out. I still remember though, the night that I began to notice how precious Noemi really is. After Benji gave a public talk, her family had hospitality. To see her working so hard to serve others, being balanced in her hospitality while not being the center of attention, among other things I just really appreciated how beautiful she was inside and out.

After prayerful consideration, I began to observe Brandon with the goal of deciding whether or not to possibly pursue a courtship with him. I was a little nervous because I deeply valued our friendship, and didn’t want to lose him as my friend. But to my surprise he had been thinking the same! 

Love Blooms

We were excited to start our courtship and the relationship blossomed so beautifully. It’s been a joy to get to know Noemi on a deeper level, to see the way my dear friends and family adore her almost as much as I do. We’ve had the beautiful pleasure of seeing Jehovah’s hand through our courtship, and look forward to continually seeing it!

We’ve been so happy to have spent our courtship and engagement periods surrounded by such loving friends and family! We thank you all for your kind support and look forward to taking all you have taught us into our next chapter in life!

Q + A

Flights/Airports

For those who are flying from out of State, please keep in mind that flights during this time of year can be delayed. As a result, we suggest you book a flight that comes in at least a day or two before the wedding.   The closest airport is the Stewart International airport located in Newburgh. It is a smaller, closer airport, being only 30 minutes away. However, many find this is often the more expensive option.  The second closest airport is the Newark Airport. It’s about 1 hour and 40 minutes from Middletown, NY. We have found this airport much easier to navigate and less crazy to get in and out from.   La Guardia Airport is about 2 hours from Middletown depending on the time and day.   The JFK Airport is the furthest airport, about 2 and a half hours away from Middletown. Navigating in and out of this airport can be very tricky and confusing as it is in the heart of Queens, NY. However, many find this is often the cheapest option.

Transportation 

For transportation, we suggest renting a vehicle at the airport if possible. There are friends who offer airport transportation services but their price can range from $150-$300 one way from Newark to Middletown. This is dependent on the amount of people and luggage.

Accommodations

We wish we could host all flying in from out of town, but due to our own limited space, and the limited space of friends and family located here, we are not able to do so. Please feel free to look at the availability of local hotels/airbnbs.
