And we're not ashamed! .... On the first date he ordered pork rinds while she ordered hummus, an inauspicious start. But he introduced her to the Duchesse de Bourgogne and virtually every concert Atlanta has to offer, while she taught him about the wonderful world of podcasts and that a solid base is there for you even when you're off-balance; and things have been getting better ever since.

We're so excited to start this new phase of life and want to say thank you to our loved ones for their support, love, and help in getting us here. We are so happy that you're coming to celebrate with us!

In the interest of saving trees, we've decided to go all electronic with our invitations. We'll be sending out e-invitations in early 2019 where you can RSVP for the wedding. Conveniently, the electronic system automatically tallies guest information so not only will it not get lost in the mail, we'll be able to confirm receipt. Be on the lookout and please be sure to check your Spam box. #SaveTheEnvironment!

Special shout outs to our parents, Tonya and Chuck Pettus, Cheryl Marshall and David Dake. We appreciate all of your love and support.

One of the most fun Fri-Yays you'll ever have - Obviously! We can't say thank you enough to all our people but we're going to try with an evening of dancing, drinks, and delicious food. Expect a quick ceremony with some personal touches before jumping right into the fun, with a Arches beer in hand, of course (or two, if you are ambidextrous).

The Foundry is a large industrial building in West Midtown Atlanta. While there's an outside area for cocktail hour, we'll mainly be inside. No rain plan or outside shoes necessary. (Ladies, if you want to bring some flats for comfort's sake, go for it!).

There are over 200 parking spaces at the venue and we'll be staying put there - until the late night festivities begin. Where we're headed after is TBD.. . we'll let the adventure take us where it will!

Nope! We're going as green as possible and trying to save the trees. Expect an electronic save the date and invitation coming your way - you may want to check that spam folder!

In case you didn't know... Jeff's got quite the background with beer. Don't worry we'll have all your favorites Arches beers in cans (conducive for all those violent hand gestures) and as a special treat: he's making a beer specially for the wedding, with a little his and her twist.

There will also be wine and the hard stuff for those of you who prefer other libations. You'll just have to accept that we will be judging you the whole time.

It will be delicious, of course. If you've got any dietary restrictions just let us know, we've got you covered. And knowing Jo, there will be an array of healthy options to taste (she swears that she's keeping me healthy so that I'll be around longer, which is about the sweetest reason to eat broccoli that I can imagine).

That being said, we're not doing the traditional three course dinner. It'll be buffet style for you to choose your own culinary adventure.

We love all of your little ones! Jeff's niece and nephew will be in the wedding as special guests. Considering the late start time and the cocktail-style event, we ask that you take the night off from parenting and get (reasonably) rowdy with us responsibility free.
