Question
What's happening
Answer
The inevitable has happened. We're now less than 90 days out from our wedding date and there is just no way to ensure the safety of our guests, or even, the legality of our nuptial party. So, the wedding, the glorious celebration that it was in our brains, is canceled. The marriage, however, is not! We're still planning to tie the knot in Brooklyn on the weekend of August 15th. We encourage all of you beautiful people who live outside the state of NY to stay home, stay safe, and stay healthy. We love you. We would never forgive ourselves if we made any of you sick. We will have videos for you and a Zoom cocktail hour/dance party on the day of the event. We would love to see all of you there! We're having a socially distant guerilla (very appropriate as Lynn relinquishes her name) wedding, likely with a bicycle parade and an outdoor ceremony (which will likely last about 20 minutes). Updates to come regarding the exact time and details of the day!
Question
If you don't have a wedding, will you still get married?
Answer
Yes we will. While are dream of a VT barn wedding won't be happening with all of you, there will be a celebration. Details will come as we get everything planned for a Zoom party.
Question
Is the wedding happening?
Answer

Question
Where things stand
Answer
If you found this page it is because you're a friend, family, a family friend, or someone who has done a strange google search. However you landed here, it's because we are getting married and want to celebrate with you. When we got engaged last winter, we were excited to have a late summer wedding. At the time, it all seemed possible. Now, things are bit different. We have a venue, but as the world began to shutdown we started to constantly monitor what was possible logistically and ethically. We ordered and sat on our save the dates for a while before deciding to send them out. The way we see it, we want you to save the date because one way or another we are getting married that weekend. But, when and how we celebrate is a big question. Will we be able to have some semblance of a "normal" wedding, will we have a party next year, will we have to share a zoom link, or will we come up with some other creative solution?
