Stephanie and Tarek's love story began all the way back in 2012 when they were both working as tellers at Wells Fargo. Stephanie was instantly attracted to Tarek's care free, but hardworking personality. While Tarek... Well who know's what Tarek thought, because men. As time progressed, one thing led to another and on September 30, 2014 Tarek asked Stephanie to be his girlfriend (So cute). Their bond grew stronger over their mutual love for chipotle, Amazing Thai, dogs, cats (Ferg in particular), Mexico vacations, and taking naps. Stephanie puts up with Tarek's love of Fantasy Football and BTC and Tarek puts up with Stephanie's constant need to be watching HGTV and frequent text messages of dogs she wants to adopt. Fast forward 5 years, where Tarek, who is awful at keeping secrets, plans an epic proposal with a group of their friends. Fireworks went off and champagne bottles were popped as Stephanie said "YES" to spending the rest of her life with the man of her dreams. #MeantToBeAMenesi
For those wondering about our current COVID precautions: We ask that you wear a mask indoors, unless eating or drinking in cooperation with the current WI mask mandate. Please bring your own, though there will be some at the ceremony and reception available for guest use. The Bride and Groom also understand that not everyone is comfortable with being indoors at a gathering of this size at this time, and encourage all loved ones to act according to their own comfort levels and health requirements. At this time we are attempting to find ways to live stream the ceremony so even those who are unable to celebrate with us in person, can join us online! If you do need to change your reservation due to COVID, we are asking that you let us know by November 23, 2020. As changes continue with regards to the pandemic, we will update our site and be in contact with any guests who have questions or concerns.
