Hi there- we are so excited to share our special weekend with you!! We have so much in store to celebrate this occasion. Thank you for taking the time to explore our wedding website- we have included some of our favorite places in the city to explore, some travel tips, a schedule (with map!) and our honeymoon fund and gift registry. We’d love for you to have a look around to learn more about our wedding weekend plans and RSVP to the events you plan to attend! Thank you so much for your love and support- we are thrilled to get to spend so much time with our friends and loved ones. -Theodore and Emmalee

Co-workers, then friends- we went out to a pride dance party together where friends became more than friends. A dance became a kiss and before we knew it, we were moving in together. We've never been more sure of anything and we've never looked back. This is the real thing.

We knew we were going to get married by the time we had been together only a few months. Once we finally started to feel settled together and the rush of excitement still had not died down even one bit, we started making real plans. We do everything together, including planning our engagement. We picked out a ring, we chose a lookout spot in Fremont, and then we waited for everything to come together. We spent weeks with our special secret- telling nobody until it was done. We cried, we said yes, we shared special words with each other there by ourselves. It was a beautiful, perfect day.

Delanoche is something we invented to name the family we're building. We've decided to take on a new family name together, in addition to the names we've been given. To us, this marriage is about more than just our union- it's about starting something new. A new family, a new house. New traditions melting together with the old. We are preparing a place in our hearts and in the world for our children who aren't even a spark yet but who will be a force. We feel the power and the responsibility of family profoundly as it has now passed onto us. We stand proudly on the backs of our ancestors and look for a new way forward. Thank you for helping us celebrate our new becoming as Emmalee Jean Bannon Delanoche and Theodore Wolfgang Blackthorne Delanoche.
