We’re getting married!

Kia ora! Our journey began back in Colorado in 2013. What started as an entertaining friendship finally evolved into a strong and caring relationship. Since then, we have been able to travel and experience many new places together; Visiting national parks, enjoying the beaches of Tahiti, backpacking in the Rockies, exploring New Zealand’s wonders, and hiking the snowy trails of the Great Smokies. Our biggest adventure thus far has been moving across the country together to start a life in a city we had never been to; Indianapolis. We bought a house and have been working hard to make it our own. We got engaged on December 26th, 2017 in New Zealand. Exactly two years later we will be saying I Do in the same beautiful country. We are so thrilled to be able to share our special day with our family and friends in the “land of the long white cloud.” The venue we’ve chosen reflects our quirky style and personalities and it’s the perfect place to bring our two families together. Expansive views of the shimmering Pacific ocean is the perfect backdrop to exchange our vows. New Zealand is an incredible place with a unique atmosphere, great people and breathtaking landscapes. There really is something for everyone, no matter what you enjoy doing! We encourage you to explore the islands as much as you can during your visit. We will be spending our Honeymoon traveling around the South Island exploring many hikes and indulging in amazing wine. We are not looking for luxury, but we are looking forward to heaps of laughter and adventure. We hope that everyone will be able to leave New Zealand with more family, stories and pictures to share. So start planning and we’ll see you in Aotearoa next December!!

We understand the time commitment and cost of international travel, so we know and respect that not everyone will be able to make the journey to New Zealand. If you are unable to attend, we’ll miss you, but know you’ll be there in our hearts. Please think of us on our special day. We’ll share pictures as soon as they become available.
