This space was created to share our story, our intentions, and the path that has led us to this season of becoming married. While our elopement day will be quiet—guided by a desire for simplicity, presence, and connection to each other and to the place we’ve chosen—it is also held by the deep love and support of our family and lifelong friends. We hope this space offers clarity around our plans, conveys how deeply grateful we are for each of you, and provides a way for you to participate in our celebration in spirit.

We have been friends for many years, drawn together first by music and the shared understanding it brings. When life grew heavy for both of us, we found our way back through songs, poetry, and long conversations that asked nothing more than honesty. In that space, it became safe to be fully ourselves—to speak openly, to listen deeply, and to be seen and celebrated. What began as friendship softened into something steadier and deeper: a love built on truth, resilience, and the choice to keep showing up for one another.
