our story

August 22, 2023

From the moment we met in August of 2023, we were inseparable. On our first date, we bonded over our love of music and art, among a million other things we discovered we had in common. After our date, we both went home and knew we had found something special. Aurie proposed on July 8, 2025 in the house on one of our favorite bands’ album cover. This was really special to both of us because of our love for music and similar music taste. Fast forward over 2 years later — we have traveled to 23 different states, moved in together, adopted a kitten, and now we’re getting married! We have a white picket fence love story, which is something neither of us expected but welcome with open arms. We are thrilled to have you be apart of our special day.

FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by January 20, 2026 to allow us time to confirm final guest counts :)

Question

when should I arrive?

Answer

please arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the ceremony :)

Question

can I take pictures?

Answer

we ask that you do not take pictures or videos with your phone during the ceremony. We have hired a lovely photographer and will make all of our pictures and videos available as soon as possible!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Please keep things semi formal, but comfortable for the weather! We will be outside, so colorful linen or cotton suit jackets, short sleeve tops or dresses, and comfortable shoes are encouraged. Maybe bring a cardigan or shawl in case it gets cold at night. All we ask if that you please refrain from wearing jeans or tennis shoes, let’s get a little fancy!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We ask that you refrain from bringing anyone that was not addressed on your invitations as we would like to keep our ceremony as small and intimate as possible. We love all of our people, but want to celebrate with those closest to us :)

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Yes! Parking is going to be to the left inside the first gate. Car pooling is encouraged :)

Question

should I bring a gift?

Answer

Gifts are always appreciated but never expected. We do have a registry, but a card is just as great! The greatest gift you could give us is your presence :)
