Ryan and I have chosen after a lot of consideration to get married in a place that's incredibly meaningful to us, Smith Rock State Park. Because we are holding it at a State park, we have a limit on attendees, and need to keep our ceremony small. You are all incredibly important to us, and we can't wait to celebrate with EVERYONE at the reception! Thank you for understanding.
We love all of your children, but want this to be a parents night out! If you are traveling from out of state and need a babysitter in Bend, please let me know and we will arrange care of childcare!
Please dress formal, but also warm! Early November in Bend is notoriously warm, but can also be unpredictable, prepare accordingly.
There are lots of hotels in Bend with beautiful accommodations, but we highly recommend checking out some of the area's charming Air Bnb's and vacation rentals. HomeSpun is a wonderful local company!
Ryan and I have taken the last few years to build our home and are not asking for any tangible gifts. We are asking for so many of you to travel across the country, your presence for our big day is all we want. If you insist, please donate to our adventure fund for a truly kick-ass honeymoon :)
