Friends and family, As we all know, Covid-19 has dramatically impacted not only our wedding, but much of what we considered "normal". We still plan on getting married on October 11th, but please know that we will be unable to have all of the guests we initially wanted to invite due to both state guidelines and, of course, social distancing responsibilities in 2020. The safety of our loved ones is our top priority. Our venue is working hard to ensure that our wedding will be streamed and available for all to watch. We fully intend to have another fun get-together next year with all of our friends and family in a safe space. We are sad, and have been sad, and while things change day-to-day, we are reminded how much we love each other and in the end, can't wait to be married! Covid has taught us to be grateful, patient, and has also allowed us to be more reflective in what is most important when it comes to our wedding. We are also of course, reading, watching, and listening to Black and Indigenous voices. On our registry page, you will find links to organizations and groups that matter to us. Please consider making a donation if possible. Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns, and we will try to update here as soon as we get more information on the safest way to celebrate. Much love, Jess & Mark
