Dear Family & Friends, Welcome to our wedding website—a space curated with intention and excitement as we enter the first chapter of our lives as husband and wife! We wanted to carve out a small section of our site to talk about us, who we are, and our love story. Let this set the tone for our special day. From the very first moment our paths crossed, we knew we were experiencing something miraculous—a love so deeply rooted in mutual admiration for one another, for nature, creativity, and the communities that have shaped us. Like many (Z)iillennials, we met on an app. As fate (or something greater) would have it, we were only 0.03 miles apart, practically existing in each other’s orbit before we even knew it. We decided to meet at a nearby diner, where we shared cheeseburgers and chocolate milkshakes, geeking out over all the hipster, artsy things we once thought we’d only get to discuss with strangers online. Even now, we remain in awe of how rare and lucky we have always been. That night, Clifford wore black with a pop of pink, and Briana wore green with a touch of the same shade. A small detail, but in retrospect, a perfect foreshadowing of the life we would build—two souls in synchronicity, balancing and amplifying one another most naturally. As you explore our website and celebrate with us on our wedding day, you’ll notice the repeated themes of pink and green. These colors are more than just aesthetic choices; they are an emblem of who we are—our most authentic selves, magnified and complemented by the other. We are both deep believers in the vastness of the universe and the divine presence that moves through all living things. We pay homage to the sacredness of life itself. We find deep meaning in our journey, trusting that love—pure, boundless, and ever-present—guides our steps. As middle children, we are easygoing and collective-minded, always working to see the magic that lives in the world around us. We are quite grateful to have the perspective and knowledge that we have gained thus far. We live in a small apartment in a beautiful neighborhood by the park and the big Cliff (ba-dum-tsss). We make it our business to find peace and beauty in the abundance of life. We enjoy walks, hikes, live music, making music, art exhibitions, and nurturing the life of our sweet Diva cat, Artemis. Most of all, we are connected by our passion for humanity and our unwavering love for art and human expression. We invite you to explore the details of our celebration—our FAQ and travel pages should answer any questions—but more than that, we hope you feel the love that has carried us here, the gratitude in our hearts, and the sheer magic of this moment. This wedding is not just a celebration of us. It is a tribute to love in all its forms—the love that created us, the love that shaped us, and the love we hold sacred. Thank you for being here for this monumental moment. Our greatest wish is that when you leave our wedding, you feel even more connected—to us, to each other, and to your own heart. With all our love, Briana & Clifford
