On the bright side, we will be able to stay and celebrate all the way until bar close! The Dj will have to close up around midnight, however, the party doesn't have to stop!

When We Met...

They met on Tinder back when Drea was still in High School. Things did not start out like a fairy tale to say the least! They messaged here and there for around 6 months. But before things got to go farther... Caleb blocked Drea.

When We Met... again

Three years have gone by. Caleb had thought about Drea and decided to message her. But It wasn't going to be that easy. Caleb added Drea on Snapchat because he wanted to apologize how things went down years ago. Drea couldn't believe her eyes because she completely forgot about him. But when she saw his name she remembered how cute he was and how he made her feel. So she decided to give him another chance. Unfortunately, Drea was not single but with the faith Caleb meant what he said.. He just wanted to meet to apologize. He told her about why/what happened.

06.10.17 

They started dating June 10th, 2017. It was a great start to their relationship. They were constantly laughing, messing around, and just being kids in dumb love. Well that didn't last very long..

07.04.17 

SUPRISE! Drea's pregnant! Yes yes yes that did happened fast. But hey, it happens. They were so excited but also so scared. They didn't know what to expect and they were even more scared to tell their parents.

03.06.18 

They're now a family! Easton was born! Through a rough birth experience, Caleb was there for Drea through it all. Easton Jerome Frey. The name Easton was chosen because it described Caleb and Drea perfectly. They both were Baseball/Softball players their entire lives. The name "Jerome" is from Caleb's grandfather: Jerome Frey. Every year the name has gone down to the first born male. David Jerome, Caleb Jerome, and now Easton Jerome. They were so excited to have a little them. Around this time they were living in an apartment together in Union Grove. Everyone knows having a baby is one of the hardest things couples do together. Now imagine doing it with someone that you barely know. After about a year and a half together.. They did end the relationship and Drea moved in with her parents for a little while. They both needed to figure themselves out and make some changes to not only better themselves but create a better life for Easton. Couple months went by before they moved back in and made things work!

06.12.21

Things turned for the better and they were doing very well together. A couple years have passed and they were now living together in an apartment in Burlington. They hit the point that Easton was getting older and needed a sibling. So they start trying for baby number two! About the same time they found they were going to have Easton.. they found out they were having the next baby too! Baby was due February 2022! They were so excited.. but they were running out of living room.. Time to start home searching!

11.28.21

They bought a house! It is a gorgeous home in a great area. They felt very confident this was the perfect house to have baby two in. It didn't take very long for this place to feel like home. The neighbors were all very friendly. The neighborhood is very quiet and everyone keeps to themselves for the most part. What a great step for both of them and doing it together! Almost Baby time!

02.10.22

Theo Jerard Frey was born! They hid the name from everybody this pregnancy just to have some fun with it. Jerard is Drea's fathers middle name. So with Easton he has one of the "Papa's" middle names and Theo now has the other! Their family is now complete and Drea is out numbered.

10.31.22 <3

Caleb finally asked. And shockingly, Drea was actually surprised. Good job, Caleb. Heres how he did it -- He asked Drea's best friend, Geena, if she would take photos of it. (Good job) She said of course but how are we going to do a photo shoot without her knowing what it is about. She needs to be surprised! Caleb agreed. They came up with the plan that Geena would ask Drea to do a free photoshoot because she wanted to get back into taking photos again. Drea agreed, of course, and things were set from there. They all drove to a picture spot and they look some couples photos just messing around. One position Caleb was leaning over Drea and she made the joke, "Why are you breathing like that??" and everyone else knew why but he had to lie and laugh it off. As the final pictures were being taken all of the sudden Caleb got down on one knee and Drea turned. She truly didn't believe it was really happening.. Just waiting to wake up from the dream she thought was having. She got to say YES to her favorite person on her favorite day. Halloween.

Wedding Party

How do I RSVP? When Should I RSVP by?

To RSVP, click the RSVP tab or on the home page and type in the name listed on your invitation envelope. *Ex: Drea &amp; Caleb Frey*. If your envelope says 'guest' please type your name &amp; Guest. *Ex: Drea Luedtke &amp; Guest* It will then have you edit 'undefined guest' please put your guests name here and click 'Continue'. It will ask for both of you to either 'accept' or 'decline'. Finally, fill out the following questions. Kindly RSVP by September 15th. If you are unable to attend, we would appreciate you letting us know at the soonest opportunity. Any RSVP's received after the date above will be marked as 'no' as I will be sending the final head counts to our vendors shortly after this deadline - you will be missed! If you have any questions please reach out to me and I will help you! Thank you!!

Can I Bring a Plus One?

Yes, when you put your name in for the RSVP you should be asked how many people are in your 'household'. If you are confused on if you have a plus one please reference the envelope that was sent to you! It should have two peoples names OR a name '&amp; Guest' on it. If you plan to bring a plus one that Drea or Caleb didn't put on your envelope please ASK them before RSVPing due to space at the venue &amp; seating. If your envelope says '&amp; Guest' and you plan to bring a plus one; we do ask kindly for you to put their first and last name in the box 'undefined guest'. During the RSVP process is will ask to accept or decline you and your guest. If the guest box was 'accepted' and there is NO name when asked, your invite will become a solo seat. So please make sure to enter your guests name. If you are struggling please just message Drea and she will RSVP for you! THANK YOU

Are kids welcome?

Let us start off by saying we LOVE your children but to allow all wedding guests, including parents, a night of relaxation, as well as our venues capacity, we respectfully decided that NO children will attend. This is a 18+ event. Only exception is for our ring bearers (Easton &amp; Theo) &amp; flower girl (Emmi). We understand this may be difficult and some of you may have to decline our invitation. We will miss you dearly and appreciate your understanding! &lt;3

Is there a dress code?

Yes! It may seem strange but it's very important to the Bride &amp; Groom. ﻿The dress code is ALL Black. Black dress shirts, black tie, black cocktail dresses and black shoes/heels are requested. We have a vision for our photos and request absolutely no colors(even white button up shirts). We are getting married on halloween after all! (PLEASE NO COSTUMES) Unfortunately, if other colors are worn, we will ask our photographer to make sure there are no photos of this person. ** If you are still unsure of what to wear, click the following link: <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/dreatrouble/guest-dress-code/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wedding Dress Code</a> Also, prepare for it to get a little chilly once the sun goes down. There will be bonfires burning along with moveable heaters. And we will be offering some blankets, if needed. ** This does not include jackets. We will be tying the knot in the end of October and it can be chilly. We do not expect everyone to have a black jacket/coat.

Will the Ceremony and Reception be indoors or outdoors?

Ceremony will be held outside (weather pending) starting at 4pm! Cocktail hour &amp; Reception will be held inside the barn. There will be a seating chart near the bar so during this time please find your seat and get ready for the Grand March!

How does seating work?

The Ceremony will be open seating to sit wherever you please. However, there will be a few chairs reserved for our parents, grandparents and wedding party. The Reception will have a seating chart! The seating chart will be set up as the exact floor plan ( the tables may seem out of order but I promise there is a reason ) Just take a look during the Cocktail Hour. THANK YOU!

What do I do if i'm late for the ceremony?

The ceremony will be starting at 4:00pm, we recommend guests arrive between 3:30-3:45pm. So there is time to mingle and find a seat. If you happen to be late please wait until Drea is down the aisle before walking up. If our Ceremony ends up being inside because of weather you will have to wait outside the barn until the ceremony is over. You will still be able to attend the reception so hang tight! We appreciate your understanding!

Is the ceremony and reception location wheelchair accessible?

Yes! The venue has a ramp to get into the barn that will accommodate wheelchairs. They also have a lower bar that is accessible from outside without stairs!

Is there parking available at the venue?

Yes, there is complimentary guest parking. Signs will be posted at the entrance of the venue and you will be directed on where to park. If you need to leave your car over night you are able to do so! They do not require all vehicles to be off the site until the next day. We DO NOT want anyone drinking and driving and Our venue (of course) agrees. Bus Transportation from the Venue to the Hotel starting at 10pm Transportation times include:10pm11pmMidnight1am

FAQS

Main Hotel 

Check in is at 4pm. Unfortunately our wedding starts at 4pm. The hotel keeps your room reservation until 2am so you just need to check in prior to 2am. If this is a hassle please feel free to book for two nights (10.30.25-Nov.1.25). We do apologize for this inconvenience but we can only offer what the hotel offers. We were only given a certain amount of room blocking so once these spots fill up they are filled up. Please feel free to make a reservation at the same hotel or others in the surrounding area. Thank you so much!!
