Our Wedding

First off, let us just say how truly lucky we feel to share this moment in our lives with the people we love the most! Not only will we be celebrating our love, but we’ll be doing so in one of our favorite places—a place that holds countless memories and has such special meaning for us. We are beyond thrilled to share the beauty of Estes Park (and Colorado) with all of you, our favorite people! Allow us to take you on a quick trip down memory lane…we promise it’ll be short! Picture this: South Amboy, 2020. The middle of lockdown. What better time to plan our first vacation as a couple? With travel options limited, Nick suggested Boulder…and the rest, as they say, is history! We were hooked! The following year, we decided to cross an item off our bucket list and see a show at Red Rocks. As luck would have it, Deadmau5, one of our favorite DJs, was playing. Before the show was even over, we knew we had to make this a yearly tradition! Little did I know, two short years later, during our yearly Red Rocks pilgrimage, Nick planned and executed the most amazing proposal! As we were boarding our flight home, I turned to him and said, "Wow, how amazing would it be to get married here?" And here we are, two years (and 10 days, but who’s counting?) later, about to say our "I do's" in the most gorgeous place, surrounded by you—our most cherished people. We will be updating this site with all the details as we have them! Please do not hesitate to reach out to Nick or I if you have any questions!
