We met at The Monarch for drinks when I got off work one night. We ordered some drinks and sat and talked for hours. And I mean hours as in our waitress had to come and tell us that they were closing for the night. As we were walking to our cars, Brian asked if he could give me a hug. **SHOCKER** I said yes, and we've been inseparable ever since.
1. Growing up, Clearwater and The Independent School competed against each other in sports. 2. Our time at Newman University overlapped, but we never met each other. 3. Our grandfathers worked together at Raytheon and have the same birthday - March 1st.

There’s also a location on Rock Rd - Brian recommends the fish and chips and I recommend anything, especially the Blueberry Ale!
Some of the best sour beers we’ve ever had!
Think science but make it fun - for kids and adults!
One of our favorite breweries!
We LOVE the tiki bar!
The place it all began :)
Lots of shopping options - Academy, Barnes & Noble, Maurice’s, Old Navy, Target, Walmart and many more!
You have to get the bacon crack!
Brian loves the Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese and I love the Buffalo Chicken Pizza on cauliflower crust! So many good beers as well!
ALL the animals! We also love going to Wild Lights at the Zoo around Christmas time!

Honestly, we just want all of you to be comfortable! With that being said, remember that there will be pictures taken! Please avoid white, cream, beige, ivory, etc (colors that are normally reserved for the bride). The bridal party is wearing navy, dark green and light purple, so we kindly ask that you avoid those colors if possible. Lighter shades of blue and green as well as darker shades of purple are welcome!
As much as we would love to accommodate everyone, there just isn't room. Only those named on the invitation are invited! If there's any question, you can always reach out to one of us to double check!
Yes - as long as they are named on the invitation! There is an activity/learning space for the kids (and adults) to have fun in! If you want a kid free evening, that is good with us too! Just be sure to RSVP appropriately!
Our ceremony will be earlier in the day and much more intimate! We cannot wait to see everyone at the celebration though!
Our RSVP deadline is September 18th! No one will be able to RSVP as of September 19th. If changes need to be made, please reach out to either of us!
