Erin and Joe met at a party in college through a mutual friend. This was followed by multiple dates to the dining hall, freezing walks home from the bar, and endless trips up and down route 81.

Following multiple moves (including one down to Raleigh), job changes, Lottie's entry to the family, and a home purchase, the proposal came along in the perfect way: a late summer night in front of their first home with Lottie snoozing at their feet.

Erin never considered what her perfect wedding would be and neither did Joe. Raleigh Brewing Company was one of the first places they visited in Raleigh, and they have spent many afternoons there since. They thought it would be the most personal way to celebrate their big day. Besides, how else could they get all their friends and family in Raleigh under the roof of their favorite brewery?
