We’ve created this website as a convenient and interactive way to share all of the important details with you in the lead up to our wedding. You can also read more about our love story, get to know our awesome bridal party, and check out our registry information too. So have fun, take a look around and don’t forget to RSVP! Finally – thank you for your ongoing love and support. We are so excited to share this day with you and look forward to dancing the night away with all of our favorite people!
How We Met: Christian Mingle (although we avoided telling anyone that at all costs for the first few months of dating) - but now we are basically their spokes-couple. Seriously guys - it works! We're still waiting on our #ChristianMingle commercial - we'll keep you posted. Favorite Couples Activity: Cooking Together - we are total foodies! We love to get the best ingredients from local farmers markets and even go as far as getting fresh meat from a butcher shop so we can make the most gourmet meal as possible. Favorite Date Night: Going out to a local restaurant we haven’t tried before and ordering their most popular menu item. Again - total foodies. Oh, and we definitely always order dessert too! Our Foundation: We both credit our relationship with God for the strong foundation that our relationship has been built on. Relationships aren't always easy but having God at the center and as our foundation has led us closer together and to the Lord during every stage of our relationship. We have the ultimate example of love when we look at God and how he sent his son as a sacrifice for us. There is no love greater than God's love for humanity and we are so grateful for our relationship with God and how much it has grounded our love for each other. 1 John 4: 7-11, 19 "7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. 10 In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another...19 We love because he first loved us."
Timing: Our ceremony starts at 5pm - Our venue will not allow anyone into the ceremony site once the ceremony has begun. We recommend arriving at 4:45 to get seated! Pictures and Cell Phones: We are having an unplugged ceremony - no cell phones, cameras, or other devices allowed. We have photographers and videographers to capture everything and we are more than happy to send you some photos from them so you can have your own copies! Take as many pictures as you would like during cocktail hour and reception - our only request is that if you post them use our hashtag #prichardpartyoftwo so we can see them and all the fun you're having! :) Dancing: We have a great DJ and hope everyone will join us on the dance floor. There is no such thing as bad dancing (in our opinion at least ;) ) so all skill levels are welcome - EVEN DAD DANCE MOVES - we want the sprinkler, the shopping cart, the fish hook, and whatever else you can invent. Dance with us! Questions? Contact Ashley Doden: (925) 915-0647
