He asked, I said YES

As we approach our big day we had to make some tough decisions, and while we would love for everyone to join us, that isn’t possible in our current situation due to COVID-19. Since we can’t have everyone be with us at the ceremony and reception on June 20, 2020, we still want to celebrate with you. Stan and I would absolutely love if you would share a video, picture, or message to us [of you celebrating in spirit] that we can compile into a video and cherish forever. We appreciate your support and love during these times and can’t wait to hear from all of you.

In the Summer of 2015, we were attending a dear friends wedding when Stan approached me in the beer line with THE MOST cheesy pick-up line, only he could pull off. It sparked giggles and conversation that I would never be able to forget. Two days later I left for Grad school in Pennsylvania, where 624 (yes I looked) miles separated us. Despite that distance though, we became best friends. Over the years and through each milestone, we have fallen more and more in love. We are beyond thrilled to have you celebrate with us on our wedding day, on the day we met, 5 years later.
