We’re getting married!

With saddened hearts we must inform everyone that the wedding that has been at the center of our world now for the past year will look a little different then we had ever thought possible. We had hopes that we would be able to have our wedding and reception as we had planned. However, restrictions related to the pandemic have prevented us from having a gathering of people in an indoor space. With this, we have decided to cancel the reception that was planned to take place at the Ramada in Marquette. On the bright side, we still plan to be married on Oct. 17th regardless of the world’s status. We believe that we cannot allow this situation to beat us, and that we’ve spent too much time waiting and prepping to officially begin our lives together. We also have to make the difficult decision of what to do with our reception. What we have determined is everyone that has been invited and RSVP’d will be welcomed at our wedding service at St. Peter Cathedral @ 2:00 PM on 10/17/2020. However, there will be no after party. We will be spending time with family only after the wedding. We understand that this may create a headache for some people due to already made travel plans and we deeply apologize to anyone that this negatively or financially affects. This decision is way more difficult for us then anyone could understand. We also wanted to thank everyone for their continued support of us through this bizarre journey that we’ve had to take on. We are truly heartbroken that our wedding will have to be under these circumstances. If anyone has questions regarding all of this, please let us know. Our Love, Sidney and Zach

Zachary and Sidney met at Northern Michigan University (NMU) in Marquette, Michigan in August 2015. The two love birds started dating in December 2015 and have been together ever since. Since then, Zach transferred schools to Michigan Tech University to pursue a chemical engineering degree and Sidney continued her education at NMU to achieve her Bachelors of Science in Nursing. Zachary popped the big question on July 6th, 2019 and his future bride said yes of course! They are both very excited for all their guests to join them in celebrating the couple being able to receive the Holy Sacrament of Marriage at St. Peter Cathedral in Marquette, Michigan on October 17th, 2020.
