Our Wedding

Dusk to Dawn 

Cassandra and Joseph met when they were just 7 years old. Joseph became Cassandra's first real crush. Over the years they were around each other on and off until their high school years where Cassandra became Joseph's first case of "Puppy love", with Cassandra none the wiser. After years of Joseph's "love from a far" the summer after high school the two began to hangout as "just friends" this did not last long and they began to fall for each other, until one fateful night. Joseph and Cassandra&nbsp;decided to hang out, and as the minuets turned into hours the two fought off their sleepiness to stay in the presence of one another. The night turned into the day as they watched the sunrise at the local bay. 3 years later of dating, at that very spot, Joseph would propose to Cassandra and their Happily Ever After would begin.&nbsp;

Things to Do

Meet the Crew!

Every person will tell you..."keep the wedding party small".....So we did the opposite. With the ones we hold closest to our hearts, we have assembled a crew that no other could match. With these people by our side, we expect the most memorable day of our lives.

"Best Friends" isn't quite the word for this bond, "Soul Mates" seems a better term. Ever since Cassandra and Katie were 7, they have been a rock for each other through thick and thin. Cassandra would never imagine walking down the aisle without Katie by her side. 

Kathryn Jakub

Older sister of the bride, Emily has always been and always will be Cassandra's biggest role model of Faith, Familyhood, and Fun. 

Emily Rolwes

Sister of the Bride, and Cassandra's first best friend. Molly and Cassandra grew up partners in crime, and still hold to that title still today. With Molly by her side, Cassandra hopes to catch this dub. 

Molly Abbud

Sister of the Bride. Mary was one of the first members of the family to make Joseph feel part of the family, with her sarcastic remarks and egging him on. Nowadays, Mary has become the official 7/11 and target run companion for the Bride and Groom to be. Yahtzee!! 

Mary Abbud

Sister-in-law of the Bride (only by title not by relationship). Katie A has seen it all when it comes to the Bride the good, the bad, and the shorts...Katie automatically became a sister the first time they met, and not much has changed since then. Katie A has also gained Joseph's given title of "the best" as she welcomed him into the family with an open heart. 

Katie Abbud

Sister-in-law of the bride(only by title, not relationship ). Ever since meeting Rosemarie for the first time the fun and jokes haven't stopped. From lions costumes to pretzels and wine. Rose has been a rock for Cassandra, knowing that she'll always be there for her no matter what. P.S. this wedding planning would be waaaay more of a headache without the help of Rose​.

Rosemarie Abbud

Sister of the Groom. Rachel has always been so welcoming of Cassandra, making her feel a part of the family. Their friendship has blossomed over the past 3 years, and Cassandra has done away with the title "friends" and considers Rachel a sister. 

Rachel den Hartog

Brother of the Groom. Through thick and thin Eric has always had Josephs's back. Always an example of leadership and integrity. He has been leading Joseph into battle since the beginning. From running and gunning as youngsters in the backyard accomplishing imaginary missions to today as one of his NCO's in the Nationall Guard.
"Sergeant Butterman, the little hand says it's time​ to rock and roll."

Eric den Hartog

Gamer, Cook, Craftsman, Butcher, Agriculturalist, Star wars enthusiast. This jack of all trades is Joseph's little brother and young Padawan. Even though Jude took the spot of Baby of the family from Joseph, this young whippersnapper is wise beyond his years.

Joseph hopes to see his little brother in the kitchen for many years to come whipping up his favorite​ meals.

Jude den Hartog

Brother of the Bride, this hard-working father,  and husband has always been the life of the family get-togethers throughout Joseph and Cassandra's​ time together.  Always bringing the good times and the pickle juice! 



Alexander Abbud

Brother of the Bride, Trevor is the go-to for a great story with big laughs! Always making the groom-to-be​ feel welcomed in the family with many hours of backyard sports and catching dubs in Fortnite​.


Trevor Abbud

Brother of the Bride. Underneath his tough rugged, and handsome exterior, is a  truly soft kind,​ and gentle soul who has been​ nothing but welcoming hospitable​ to Joseph ever since he started dating his sister Cassandra​. Always bringing the laughter and the ruckus.

P.S. 
Joseph will always tressure that bacon egg and cheese sandwich. 

Elijah Abbud

Sister of the bride. Faith may be the youngest in the family, but she still is the first Cassandra will go to for fashion advice, or what the newest TikTok trend means. Always ready to stand up for what she believes this 12-year-old going on 21 constantly​ teaches Cassandra new lessons every day​.
