When we first began planning our wedding, we pictured an intimate backyard garden party with just a handful of loved ones. But Reed and I quickly realized how unrealistic that was as we are beyond blessed with the absolute best friends and family. If you’re reading this, please know how deeply grateful we are for the role you’ve played in our lives and in shaping us into who we are today. With Emily being from South Carolina, Reed from Washington, and the two of us now calling Alaska home, we cherish time with our long-distance friends and family more than ever. Each of you holds a significant place in our story, and we couldn’t imagine starting this new season of marriage without you. Thank you for the time, money, and love you’ve given to travel near and far to celebrate with us. We cannot wait to see you on October 4th!
