How We Met

Thanks, pandemic.

Where we’re marrying – our tiny town of Idledale – has everything to do with how we met: here, amid the first months of the covid pandemic last spring. Andy’s then-neighbor and Renée’s still-friend Joe plotted for weeks to introduce us at his wife Bailey’s birthday party at their Idledale home, and while it took a little while for us to click, now Renée is a leech (lol) and Andy, who’s always been a sucker, is head over heels for her, too. Fast forward a few dozen months since that fateful birthday party and we’re excited to share our home and that of our dear neighbors with you, our wedding guests. Our ceremony will be held high up on the Idledale hillside at Juniper Ridge, the picturesque home of dear friends Mack and Jacquie Anderson. Their quaint guesthouse was home for Andy right around the time he and Renée met in the summer of 2020, and the views from the nearby patio are as stunning as the fact that Renée is actually marrying Andy, so we’re ever appreciative of the Andersons for sharing their patio with us for the ceremony. Having spent many an evening on their property, we couldn’t be happier at the idea of saying our vows mere steps from where the beginnings of our relationship were formed. Our reception will be held at our beloved home in… you guessed it… Idledale. There’s a theme here: surround ourselves with love in this valley that surrounds us with constant blessings, and we can’t wait to party with you. We’re grateful for all our fellow Idleneighbors who are opening their driveways and tolerating our noise, and especially thankful in advance for those immediately nearby who must put up with our revelry. (We promise to not party too late.).

For all the days along the way
