Sawyer and I have chosen to exchange our vows in an extraordinarily private ceremony on Saturday, May 17th, 2025. In this self-solemnized union, it will be just the two of us—no witnesses, no audience—only our love, the promises we make to one another, and the moment we step into our future together. This decision was not made lightly, but with careful thought and deep consideration for what feels most genuine to us as a couple.

For us, the sanctity of this moment lies in its simplicity. Sharing our vows in solitude allows us to focus entirely on the commitment we are making to one another, free from distractions and in a way that feels entirely true to who we are. It is a reflection of our bond, one that is rooted in quiet understanding, authenticity, and the deep connection we share.

We understand that this choice may feel unconventional, and we are endlessly grateful for the love and support of our friends and family. Although our ceremony will be private, our hearts are full knowing that later that same day, we will gather with all of you to celebrate our marriage. Your presence at our reception means more to us than words can express, and we cannot wait to share the joy of this special day with the people who have shaped our lives and love story.
