We're getting married! We know many of you are wondering, "Why aren't they having a wedding ceremony? Why aren't they having the reception in the States?" And some you may still be wondering, "Are they actually engaged or are they joking again..." Here are the answers to your burning questions. One, we are really engaged. If we weren't, this would be a very expensive joke! Two, because we've chosen to spend our lives in America--where we live, where we work, where we raise our dog--we felt it was important for our loved ones to experience the other country and culture that means so much to us. The Philippines was where Ari was born, and where most of her family and friends still live. Three, there will be no ceremony because we simply don't want one. We don't love ceremonies (especially emotional ones), but we do love a good party, we love each other, and we love all of you! The festivities will take place on the beautiful Miniloc Island Resort in El Nido, Philippines (you can find the resort website at https://www.elnidoresorts.com/miniloc-island). On THIS website, we try to give you as much information as possible about travel, room rates, schedule of events, and frequently asked questions. Please explore this website and never hesitate to reach out to us with additional questions. We're so excited to let our worlds collide and celebrate this amazing life milestone with you all!
