Upon settling in Bend, Oregon, it became clear that the serene and often mystical landscape surrounding us is unmatched. It quickly became evident that we wanted to celebrate this momentous occasion in the area we now call home. We worried about the logistical strain it would add to ask all of you to make your way to Oregon so we chose to have an intimate ceremony with only our parents and siblings. This took the pressure off planning an extravagant affair, and we were able to instead explore, relax, and relish in the moment with those closest to us. Surrounded by clear lakes, mossy trees, and snow capped mountains, it truly made the experience something to remember. We now wish to celebrate our wedding with all of you, because you have been there for us throughout our lives. If possible, We ask that you join us this September for a casual affair to celebrate this special time in our lives the best way we know how, with good food and great people. Thanks for all of your support and we look forward to seeing you.
