Later this year, we’ll be exchanging vows in the mountains of Colorado—just the two of us. Before we head west, we can’t imagine starting this next chapter without celebrating with the people we love most. Please join us on July 25th in Guntersville, Alabama for an all-in-one celebration of our marriage. This gathering will take the place of a traditional wedding shower and reception—one meaningful evening to eat, drink, and celebrate together.
5:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Cocktail Attire: Guests are invited to wear elevated summer cocktail attire.
Please plan to arrive at 5:00 PM to enjoy cocktail hour and charcuterie as the celebration begins. The evening will include live music and a full dinner. While we are kindly encouraging this to be an adults-focused celebration, children are absolutely welcome if that is what works best for your family.

Not in the traditional sense. This celebration will be our all-in-one shower and wedding celebration before we elope.
