Our Wedding

On April 16, 2022, (date look familiar?) Jamie was working on a lab for one of her classes while Julian and some of his other military friends were getting ready to go to the bar with her roommates. With the help of a little liquid courage, Julian walked up to Jamie and struck up a conversation. She joined the group to go out and spent all night talking to Julian at the bar.After that night, the two began talking nonstop, and saw each other next when Julian returned from a field op in California a month later. They went on their first official date to an ECU Baseball Game. Jamie and Julian started dating on June 5, 2022. Throughout the summer, they would meet up in Greenville or the Outer Banks to be together.The two were constantly traveling back and forth between Cherry Point and Greenville, Greenville and Bethesda, or Newark and Bethesda to be together, until they moved in together in August 2024, when Julian was medically retired from the USMC.Jamie and Julian got engaged while on vacation in Hawai'i. Julian proposed on August 6, 2025, at Punalu'u Black Sand Beach, in Kona.

Travel

We ask that our guests please dress in formal attire for our big day. Wear something that makes you feel your best!

Women:

Formal attire typically includes long dresses or elegant cocktail-length dresses, paired with dressy shoes and optional accessories like simple jewelry or a wrap. It’s a step above semi-formal—think polished, classic, and a bit elevated for a special occasion.

MEN:

Formal attire typically includes a dark suit and tie or a tuxedo, worn with a dress shirt, dress shoes, and a belt. The overall look should be clean, tailored, and elevated—more dressed up than business wear, appropriate for a special event.

Additional Dress Code Guidance

To help keep the event feeling cohesive and elevated, we kindly ask guests to avoid casual clothing such as jeans, shorts, leggings, t-shirts, or sneakers.

One of the first places Jamie took Julian on his first visit was to Manhattan! They spent the day at the Empire State Building, Bryant Park, Rockefeller Center, and Times Square. There is plenty to see and do in the city!

Another one of the first places Jamie took Julian, Sandy Hook is the beach Jamie grew up going to. It has several ocean beaches, and the further down you go, there's a great view of New York City! The park is home to the Sandy Hook Lighthouse and buildings from Fort Hancock, and if you're lucky, you might see seals! It might still be cold in April, so make sure to bring a jacket!
