If you know the bride, you know this: every birthday, every holiday—when asked what she wants, she says “a handwritten letter.” She keeps a box full of mementos from every season of life. One day, she plans to scrapbook them all when she’s older. So, in lieu of physical gifts, one of the most meaningful things you could bring is a handwritten letter. A note, a memory, a story, advice, even just words from the heart. There will be a special box at the wedding for you to tuck your letter into.

In 2026, we will be moving to Kansas! We are not accepting physical gifts for this reason alone. Remember your presence is a present. We’re deeply grateful for your love and support in all the ways you show up. Thank you for being part of our journey. — Yemane & Mitchell
