“My wife is not as fickle as a flame. She is an ocean. I knew from the first that I cannot own her, cannot tame her, but I am the only storm that moves her depths and stirs her tides. And that is more than enough.” ― Pierce Brown, Iron Gold

Our Wedding

In the third millennia, year twenty-threeIs where begins this reverieSo heed me reader, let your mind goTo the storied shores of Quantico A maiden fierce, a limping knightA battlefield of azure groundA tender love upon first sight?Nay, in combat was their friendship found A duelist partnership was formedHer martial prowess did amazeOn legal matters, uninformedBut her grit set his heart ablaze Now ten and one seasons have passedOn Western shores they've built their holdThe bell for pedophiles has tolledTheir love leaves onlookers aghast And now you come at our behestTo hear our devotion expressedA titanic feast you will ingestThe culmination of our quest ...lest? - Benjamin Braverman 2025

Am I allowed to bring a plus one?

The name of every guest invited to attend is listed when you RSVP online and no additional guests can be accommodated. Please contact Ben or Vera if you believe we have forgotten someone.

What date should I RSVP by?
