Our first date was in September 2017 at a neighborhood taqueria in North Portland. The burritos were nothing special, Talia's arm was in a sling from a rafting accident, and Chaise felt a bit regretful for taking such a special lady to such a mediocre place for a first date. We hit it off over not only our mutual love of food, but our shared passion for the outdoors, staying active, and acting childish. It only took a few more dates involving better burritos after taking Mabel, as a floppy puppy, on hikes along the coastline and through the alpine for us to see the life we could have together and towards this special day.

We'll be getting married at Loloma Lodge in McKenzie Bridge, OR. Lodging for most guests will be offsite. See the travel section for some options. We'll be updating this site with a detailed schedule, stay tuned.
