Our Wedding

We met in college when we were just 20 and 21, and quickly became inseparable. Over the past 5 years, we’ve grown through every season, as we have navigated life together and built something special. After college, I moved to Syracuse to be closer to Jake and soon after, we built a home (and a little family) with our two labradoodles, Dunkin and Teddy. They have been part of our story every step of the way. Last November 2024, Jake proposed with our dogs sitting under the tree wearing “will you marry me?” bandanas. It was the easiest yes ever.

Wedding Party

Right up the street from our wedding venue, is a classic Hilton Hotel with all the amenities. We recommend booking early as this hotel has limited availability on our wedding weekend.

Known as the “Grand Canyon of the East,” Letchworth State Park is a breathtaking natural wonder just a short drive from Canandaigua.
