Our Story

Our story starts with a dating app as most modern day romances do. Sam's profile caught my attention with a picture of him and Cash, I'm a sucker for a cute dog. But Sam's wit and personality is what kept my interest. After learning that Sam's career would require me to stay quiet on a golf course for 18 holes I began to panic, because if you've heard my laugh (or me for that matter) you know it is anything but quiet. However, Sam was worth learning how to laugh silently and control my talking. Through these past two years our love for each other has grown as strong as Sam's hat tan line. While on paper (a southern gentleman and loud jersey girl) we look like complete opposites, we somehow make it work. I can say with great confidence that marrying Sam will be the best decision I've made. And as for Sam, you'll have to ask him what he thinks but I think he'd agree with me.

We are registered on Zola and Crate and Barrel

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

There is parking at the venue with golf carts available to bring you to the ceremony.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Unfortunately, due to budget and space limitations, we simply can't afford for all of our lovely guests to bring a guest of their own. Therefore, we regretfully ask our guests to please not bring a plus one, unless they are specifically named on the invitation.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Dress to impress in your best cocktail attire! The temperature this time of year in Birmingham is a toss up so we recommend checking the weather before coming. If cold weather is expected there will be space heaters, but you may want to bring a jacket.
