Our Wedding

Brooke and Kevin went to the same middle school, but they were just acquaintances back then. That all changed in 9th-grade biology, where Kevin made it his lifelong mission to tease Brooke by calling her “Noodle Arms.” The irony? As a dedicated track runner, his arms weren’t exactly winning any strength competitions either.&nbsp;&nbsp; Fast forward a few years: a friend’s birthday party brought them back together. Somehow, Kevin had evolved from *mildly annoying* to *unexpectedly charming*, and soon, casual friend group hangouts turned into not-so-subtle solo outings. By 2017, at the age of 15, they were officially together—just two teenagers figuring things out while growing up side by side.&nbsp;&nbsp; They conquered high school, navigated college during the chaos of covid-19, and both landed full-time jobs in the oil and gas industry—because clearly, they weren’t done thriving in parallel. Somewhere in the midst of it all, they built a life together, decided to make this thing permanent, and bought their first house together. So here they are: two high school sweethearts, finally tying the knot. No more biology class, no more noodle-arm jokes—just a lifetime of love, laughter, and new adventures together!

Wedding Party

IS THERE A DRESS CODE? We would love for our friends and family to dress up with us! The dress code is cocktail (semi-formal) attire. Please do not wear jeans or any shades of white.

DO I GET A PLUS 1? We unfortunately cannot accommodate additional guests. Due to limited capacity, we can only allow the people named on your invitation. Your invitation will be made out to "{Your Name} and Guest" if a plus one has been given to you.

ARE KIDS INVITED? Your invitation will be made out to "The {Your Last Name} Family" if your children have been invited and "Mr and Mrs." if only you and your significant other have been invited. We hope you take this opportunity to enjoy a date night and we appreciate you making prior arrangements.

WHEN SHOULD I RSVP BY? We will have our guests RSVP online via this wedding website, under the "RSVP" tab, by February 1, 2026. If you do not RSVP in time, we will assume you are unable to attend, and you will be marked as "not attending". We would love for you to celebrate with us; however, we have to provide an exact guest count to our vendors for food, seating, etc., and cannot accept late RSVPs.

WHAT TIME SHOULD I ARRIVE? The ceremony will start at 5 o'clock sharp so we ask that you arrive at least 30 minutes early to the chapel to take your seat.

WILL THERE BE AN OPEN BAR? Of course! The drinks are on us, but the hangover is on you! We ask that all guests drink responsibly and make arrangements for a safe ride home.

IS THE WEDDING INDOORS? Our ceremony and reception will be indoors, with the exception of cocktail hour out on the patio.
