Our Wedding

It all began in Minneapolis. December 3rd 2021, Carly and Logan met at HeadFlyer Brewing, a local bar. They initially connected over Hinge, an online dating app. From their first date, they instantly connected and have been dating ever since.Carly had a job contract signed for Chicago, and after their time dating in Minneapolis, Logan agreed to join her. They took a chance and moved in together the 3 of them - Logan, Carly, and Logan's dog Boomer.They got settled in Chicago quite quickly. Living together was wonderful. They cooked together, explored the city, and became dog parents.For Carly's 30th birthday, they decided to go to Asheville, North Carolina. On 3/19/23, they visited the Biltmore. Although tired and cranky from waking up early, Carly did enjoy the tour of the mansion. Logan then suggested they take pictures in front of the Biltmore Castle. As they were posing, Logan took the ring out of his pocket and proposed. After a moment of stunned silence, Carly finally said yes. Now, the rest is history.

The cobblestone streets are lined with shops, restaurants, cafes, and boutiques. Old Montreal is also bordered by the St Lawrence River, which offers a great view to enjoy some ice cream or rent a bike along the trails.

It was raised to the rank of minor basilica by Pope John Paul II in 1982 and designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1989. Its religious, historical and artistic importance makes it a treasure of Quebec’s heritage and one of the most visited sites in Montréal.

The Carré Saint-Louis (also known as St. Louis Square) is one of Montréal’s most important literary streetscapes. Famed Québecois poets Émile Nelligan and Gaston Miron called this home.

(It’s been called “the closest thing to a European neighborhood square you’ll find this side of the Atlantic” by the Project for Public Spaces.) A few blocks away is the fabled Schwartz’s Deli. Grab a “smoked meat” to go, then come here to chow down by the fountain, surrounded by trees and 19th-century façades. (The nearest subway is Sherbrooke station on the Orange Line.)
