We hope that all your main concerns are answered here!
Question

What is going on with your wedding?

Answer

We decided during COVID-19 that we wanted an intimate family wedding on Mackinac Island. There is obviously more people that we would have wished could be there, however, due to the nature of pandemic when the wedding planning began, we kept a short guest list.

Question

Do you really expect a gift?

Answer

NO NO NO, it's not expected! We only created a registry because we had a few people reach out and say that they were getting us a gift and wanted a registry. We really are more excited to spend time with the people we care about and celebrate our marriage (and maybe that 2020 is behind us). We are registered with Amazon. It is on the Registry tab, but its also listed here: https://www.amazon.com/wedding/organize-registry?ref_=wedding_subnav
