For the health and safety of our guests, including the mother of the bride who is immunocompromised with cancer, and as mandated by the City of Chicago, all attending guests must provide proof of COVID vaccination. We are asking each of our guests to send a copy of their vaccination card via email to hayleyformolo@gmail.com by July 19, 2022. We also encourage each of our guests to complete a COVID test prior to joining us for our wedding celebrations. We understand that the situation above may make your attendance of our wedding impossible. This deeply saddens us because we love you and will miss you, but as much as we want to start our marriage with you present, we want you to stay safe more.

We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us!
