We were in the final stages of wedding planning in March when we hit "the end of the world as we know it". Hoping for a miraculous turn of events, we waited and waited to consider postponement. But as the quarantine months progressed, it became clear that a wedding on August 15, 2020 was likely not possible, at least not the wedding that we want. We did proceed with a very small, intimate "elopement" last August. It was a beautiful day--one that we'll always remember very fondly. However, Joe and I also wanted to move forward with a larger party this year. What's most important to us is having all of you there to celebrate, to laugh together, to catch up, to dance and to make some fantastic memories. We are so excited to celebrate with you, even if it's almost a year later than planned! Can't wait to see you on July 23, 2021!
