How It All Began

"Jeff and I met on a dating app. We matched and casually chatted but I would get annoyed with the online dating scene and delete the app only to reinstall it a few days later and match with Jeff again. This continued for a few months, us joking that we should receive some sort of prize for matching over 10 individual times. Things stayed virtual until I spotted him at church one Sunday. I hadn’t felt like being social and almost didn’t go that morning, so I scurried out the back door. Once I got to my car, I reinstalled the app and (not so) casually sparked up conversation with him again. In a weeks time, I was walking into Roc Brewing to meet him. Some may call it fate, but after talking that night, we listed the tens of ways that we could’ve and should’ve met throughout our lives. May it be familial connections, friends, schools, youth camps - you name it, we were likely both there at the same time. Two weeks from our date Jeff set me a screenshot of flights to Banff. Both of us thinking, this will either make it or break it. A year later, Jeff proposed at my family’s cottage - a hayfield shadowed by tall pines, right along the lake’s edge."

In light of COVID-19

As we all adapt to uncertain times with COVID-19, we are monitoring the news carefully. We are prepared to take necessary precautions to make our wedding safe for our guests. Our wedding is happening as planned, and we look forward to celebrating with you all on August 29th! At this point, we've been advised by our venue staff that an end of August wedding should be safe. Please RSVP and book your accommodations as you normally would, but check first for lenient cancellation policies, which most hotels and airlines are happy to provide in light of current events. That being said, the safety of our guests is our utmost priority. Please check our website and national and local public health websites regularly for updates. Please contact us directly with any questions – our contact information is provided below. Thank you for your love, patience, and concern! - Jeff and Care C: 585-747-3668 + J: 585-355-5726
