Well, this certainly wasn't how we had expected our wedding to happen, but even still, we are SO so thrilled to be married! This phase of our lives is overflowing with excitement and joy, though, as social creatures, it pains us deeply that we can't have a proper celebration with our friends and loved ones. Not yet, at least. Eventually, once it's safe to do so, we will have a big party. A really big party. A "banger," perhaps? We desperately want to show off our beautiful new home and share our joy loudly and proudly with everyone who wants to take part! Given that we'll likely have a year or more to plan the festivities, it should be good. A date won't be set for any large gatherings until we are certain it won't jeopardize anyone's health, so please hang tight. We will keep everyone posted!! In the coming weeks, we will be celebrating safely with our immediate families and a photographer/videographer. Documentation we have of this intimate ceremony will be shared here as soon as possible. While we're not going to livestream, this is something we do want to share! We are immensely grateful for how understanding everyone has been and the generosity we've received thus far. These are crazy times, and we want nothing more than health and happiness for our little family and for all of you and yours. Please stay well, and please do keep in touch! We truly can't wait to celebrate with you all! With love, Shannon & Jimmy<3
While there are plenty of things that we want and need for our new home and married life, we also cannot overlook the present issues of the world.
