Reception

ALL OF OUR FRIENDS + FAMILY ON APRIL 22, 2017!

Our Wedding

Although we grew up mere miles apart, our paths did not cross until December 2014. We were introduced at a mutual friend's birthday celebration, and wound up talking the night away under the stars.Perhaps it's true that opposites attract, because from that night on, we were inseparable. It didn't take long before we knew we were made for each other; from the start, we chased after the gift of love we knew was blossoming.Throughout our time together, we have remained largely long-distance. Yet, when we have felt the longing in each other's absence, God has reminded us that it is his sovereign love that fuels our hearts for each other.With the perfect and unfailing love bestowed on us, we learn to serve each other better and pursue each other more relentlessly each day. We are thrilled to transform our long-distance love to a together-love, and we are ever grateful for all who champion our ambition, counsel our steps, and celebrate with us along the way!

Reception Details

Cheers to the Happy Couple!

What will the April 22nd reception look like?

When it came to our wedding day, we did not stick to a traditional order of events. Instead, we planned the ceremony of that day around our faith, our personalities, and our families.

Now that we have already tied the knot, we're looking forward to celebrating this grand adventure with all those whom we hold most dear: YOU!

Please join us for a spring evening filled with reunions, story-telling, hugs, and cheers! We will be serving light hors d'oeuvres, alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages, all set to the backdrop of live jazz.Of course dancing is always encouraged (bring your best swing moves!), but we also hope to create a space equally as welcoming of the meeting and mingling of friends and family.It may not come as a surprise that we won't be following a sequence of conventional reception events-- first dance this, dance that, dance the other, you know the drill. BUT we will have a designated time for toasts and cake cutting, so come ready to raise a glass!

We would MUCH rather have that time to hang out with our guests, catch up, hear some toasts, and make many more memories!

As the evening winds down, we won't be doing a send-off of the bride and groom. Rather, we would like to send you off with some special favors in hand to remind you of the evening and how treasured your love and support truly are!

We Can't Wait To See You There!
