Colene & Jerry
August 30, 2026 (74 days left)
Howdy y'all! Please know that the most important thing to each of us is that we get to see you on our wedding day. BUT, if you feel inclined to give us a gift in addition to coming to our wedding, we're humbled and grateful. Thank you! Since we'll be moving to Bulgaria immediately after the wedding, it'd be hard to pack and carry and physical gifts. So, instead, we've listed several "first year of marriage" funds that you can contribute into. This way, you'll be able to support us as we begin our adventure in a new country as newlyweds! Whether it's by teaching Colene to cook Bulgarian cuisine or Jerry to ski, it'll be like you're right there with us!

Our featured fund
In Bulgaria, most things will be foreign to us. But our home can be different. That's a place we can build together to bring peace to our lives that we then extend to our local community. We hope to build a home that welcomes other embassy families, local Bulgarians, and of course, friends and family! This fund covers things like furniture, wall art, plants, a coffee maker, etc. If you want your contribution to be for something specific in the home, just note that in the Venmo!!
