Welcome & Thank You!

Thank you for finding your way to our blog! We are excited to share our wedding day with our amazing community of family and friends, and excited to showcase all the best of the life we've created together in our wedding celebration. Here you can find information about the people and businesses that will make our big day beautiful, our wish list (in lieu of a gift registry), and the sharing of the sweet stories being spun from the creation of our celebration.


"'If I love you with all of my heart,' she said, 'What will you give me?'
Then she stopped and said I didn't have to answer that, because she was going to do it anyway." --Brian Andreas

Our Ecological Intent

We are using our wedding as a canvas for co-creation.
As a public showcase for the talents of the beautiful people and businesses we believe in.
As a networking tool to bring together the amazing people in our lives who don't yet know each other.
As a vehicle to recycle the resources of our community.
As an opportunity to practice asking for what we need and giving others the chance to share love in its highest form: Service.
As an example for ourselves, our children and our community that ecologically friendly can be less expensive and exquisitely beautiful.
