Our Wedding

Fun fact Ivan recreated their first date the night he proposed! The night involved axe throwing and some wonderful food/ drinks at the sky bar in Rapid City. After the first date we both knew this was something special and would both find excuses to see each other whenever they could. Lizzie would even join in on some practices of the rugby team that Ivan aka “Gerbil” was the coach for in Rapid City as a way to see each other. As more time went on it was fairly evident that this relationship was meant to be and the rest was history from there. We are so happy to have all of our family and friends with us to celebrate us tying the knot!
