Our Wedding

We met in 2023 and quickly became inseparable. Since then we’ve weathered multiple moves, a hurricane, and plenty of everyday adventures that taught us how to lean on each other. Hudson proposed just before our third anniversary, and now as we approach our wedding on April 22, 2028, we’ll be saying “I do” just shy of five years together. We’re so excited to celebrate this next chapter with our family and friends and to keep growing together—building a home, making more memories, and sharing many more seasons of this crazy life we share together.

The 15 Best Places to Buy a Suit

We’re excited to celebrate with you in Barnardsville on April 22, 2028. Please avoid jeans, t‑shirts, and hats, and kindly skip white, cream, red, and light‑blue so the wedding party’s colors can shine. Suggested attire: sundresses, cocktail dresses, dress pants with button‑downs, blazers, or lightweight suits—comfortable for a spring day in the mountains. Because the venue includes uneven outdoor areas, we recommend women choose platform heels, wedges, or boots instead of stilettos; flat dress shoes are also a great option. If you’re unsure about an outfit or need accessibility accommodations, please contact us.
