speak friend & enter

"It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered..." It started in the best of ways: Friends. Nerdy friends, bonding over books, movies, games--quickly discovering a deep, mutual love of Indiana Jones. (The Last Crusade is the best! We absolutely agree with you!) Talkative friends that blabbed and yapped each other’s ears off or until our sides hurt from laughing over ridiculous tales. Reliable and caring friends that were strong moral supports for each other when days were glum, and there to lend a helping hand or listening ear. Great friends. After seeing War of the Rohirrim, we stood under the exit door awning of our local Cinemark, in the pouring rain, for over four hours. Finding out we were great friends that definitely were meant to be more than just friends. In that first of many long-winding, late-night talks, we were struck by the term reciprocity. How we wanted that, how we nurtured that in our love, and how we hope to extend that love and respect to those we have in our lives. We invite you, those very people we love and respect, to join us in celebrating the beginning of our next chapter in life filled with “as you wish” kind of love, glorious purpose, and any unexpected journeys. Here’s to many more great stories to come! Much love~ Allison & Steven
