COVID Update

Derek and Jess had been acquaintances a few years prior to hitting it off in&nbsp;2012. Sparks flew over the course of a few weekends starting with a trip to Lake Tahoe to celebrate their mutual friend Nina’s birthday, followed by a Cinco de Mayo bash the following weekend at Jess’&nbsp;house in San Francisco. Their first date was the following weekend where Jess suggested riding bikes to Sausalito and taking the ferry back. In classic fashion, Jess was blissfully unaware her bike was operating at 50% efficiency until near the end of the ride when Derek noticed the tire rubbing on the frame, and gave it a quick fix. The next 8 years were history.&nbsp;

Since 2012&nbsp;Jess and Derek have lived their&nbsp;lives&nbsp;together, moving around between Oakland, Petaluma, and Denver.&nbsp;Derek continues to fix Jess's gear and she returns the favor by making&nbsp;delicious pizzas.&nbsp;Together they have shared many adventures, friends, family, career changes, growth, good times, and their beloved dog Mabel.&nbsp;They are excited to have their friends and family witness them finally do the dang thing and tie the knot!

Our Story

9/5 Update: The wedding is still on! We are crossing our fingers the Covid situation doesn't change for the worse in the next couple weeks.&nbsp;Our September wedding is occurring&nbsp;in the midst of a&nbsp;pandemic. We've&nbsp;been waiting a long time to get married, so rather than postponing,&nbsp;we are moving&nbsp;forward with our wedding date. Unfortunately, this means&nbsp;our wedding will now&nbsp;be of a&nbsp;smaller scale&nbsp;to&nbsp;responsibly&nbsp;allow for&nbsp; social&nbsp;distancing and other protocols.&nbsp; For those who we can still extend an invitation, we are&nbsp;asking&nbsp;our guests to wear a mask and please refrain from attending if&nbsp;experiencing symptoms of Covid.&nbsp; We&nbsp; still&nbsp;hope to make this gathering of family and friends a joyous occasion while exercising a little common sense. For anyone who does not feel comfortable attending, please do not feel obligated to join us. For those of you who are booking travel and lodging, we recommend finding options that are refundable in case rules or circumstances change that will force us to pull the plug on the event.&nbsp;

For those of you who we can regretfully&nbsp;no longer&nbsp;have in attendance at our wedding this year, we are sorry and wish you could be with us. We&nbsp;do&nbsp;hope to have a&nbsp;follow-up function where we can invite all of our family and and friends that could not make it to the ceremony. Perhaps it will be&nbsp;in Colorado, and perhaps it will&nbsp;next year if/when the pandemic is no longer an enemy of large gatherings. Stay tuned!
