Our Wedding

Everyone can give a huge thank you to Samantha and Alex for setting the two of us up! We met on a blind date orchestrated by two of our closest friends. What started as a simple dinner at Rochester Mills Brewing Company quickly transcended into a deep love that will last a lifetime. Over the years, their bond only deepened — from long runs through Auburn Hills, to cozy nights in, to spontaneous getaways that reminded them just how fun life could be with the right person by your side. Julia, with her heart of gold and a nurse’s compassion, brought warmth and laughter into Jake’s world. And Jake, always steady, kind, and full of surprises, made Julia feel truly seen and loved. We can't wait to see everyone and celebrate with our loved ones! Make sure to wear your dancing shoes :)
