Welcome Friends and Family. Thank you for taking the time to check out our wedding website. Here, you will find information about the events surrounding our big day; the weekend itinerary, accommodations, our registry, and an exciting look at our wedding party. Oh yeah! Check out the "About the Bride/About the Groom," sections. I (Derek) wrote up a piece on Katy, and Katy was so gracious as to write up one on me. We are super FREAKING excited to share our special weekend with you all. Like, it's totally not a big deal but seriously, this wedding is such a huge deal.

About the Bride (Written by DQ) Professionally, Katy recently joined the HR team where I work, so we're not only love birds, we're also co-workers. More excitingly, she's a Health Coach. I admire so much her spirit and drive to help others achieve their health goals. An added bonus is her healthy habits, especially in the kitchen, keeping my ass reasonably healthy too! When Katy isn't working, she's the mother of our 2 pup children, Darla and Ellie. She loves bagging peaks, exploring the desert, and waking up in a tent. Wants to take dance lessons. She's a yoga junky, eats organic AF, and has a beastly taste in music. She's a foodie, loves trendy places, and can slam some cold beer as needed. She's also my favorite person. Makes me laugh, challenges me in positive ways, makes funny faces on command. Affable as hell. Gentle. Exceptional listener. Bomb cook. Kind. Aspiring Mother, something she'll be wonderful at. My #1 draft pick. About the Groom (Written by KR) In our beginning, Derek used to say if everyone had one card that would only match one other person's card ours would match, like if I had a card of a green dinosaur dancing in a blue dress and polka dot shoes then his card would be the same. Derek is my person. Even before I knew it he was my person. He is the most noble and loyal man, and a phenomenal friend. He's been a best man 6 times! His joy comes from making others laugh, and I love being his comedic audience. Derek loves cold craft beers (I didn't even know what IPA meant before him), the Sonoran desert, weird bands (that I've come to love too), giant rocks/mountains to climb, his pup children (Darla and Ellie), and me. He loves us really well. Derek is creative as heck. He was a YouTuber before people were YouTubing. He's also a game designer... stay tuned. My future hubby inspires me on a regular basis. His soul is romantic, adventurous, loving, and patient. I lucked out getting to do life with him. I can't wait to be his wife.
