A Little Getaway,

A LOT To CELEBRATE

We wanted this to feel like more than just a wedding day.

God has been so intentional in our story and in this season of our lives, and it means everything to us to celebrate it surrounded by the people we love most. So instead of keeping things close to home, we chose somewhere warm, beautiful, and just far enough away to feel like an escape… a few days to relax, reconnect, and fully enjoy it all together.

We know traveling is a commitment, and we truly don’t take that lightly. It means more to us than we can say that you would be part of it.

Everything you need is right here, whether you’re planning your trip, RSVPing, or just looking for answers in the FAQ below.

Dress Code

Beach chic, cocktail, tropical semi-formal, or unbothered comfort inspired by Adam Sandler, it all works.


Wear what feels right… we’re just glad you’re there.

The ceremony and reception will be on a hard surface, so all shoes are safe. Except Crocs....let's maybe save those for the after party ;)

OUR Love STORY

Ecclesiastes 4:9–12

How we Met

Their story began with her asking the questions and him trying to have the right answers. It was a job interview, although in hindsight the role that mattered most was never listed in the description. Fortunately, as graphic designers, both of them could tell when all the right elements were in place.

He got the job in October and, by December, found the nerve to ask her out. Her response was not rejection so much as a perfectly reasonable hesitation. A few more weeks, and a measured amount of persistence, finally earned him a first date.

By then, the hard part was already over. The conversation was easy, the hours disappeared, and the night felt less like a chance than a foregone conclusion.

The Proposal

He sold her on a birthday photoshoot at the botanical gardens, which conveniently explained the flowers, the fountain, the photographer, and why the afternoon seemed unusually well planned. What it did not explain was why, at exactly the right spot, he stopped, reached into his boot, and dropped to one knee while their friends and family watched from hiding.

He got the answer he was hoping for. Then the whole plan opened up at once, into champagne, photos, and a celebration already waiting on the other side of it.

Registry

The greatest gift to us is being able to share this milestone with you in Mexico, truly.

We know the time and effort it takes to make this trip, and it means the world to us. But for those who just can’t help themselves…

we’ll have a registry ready very soon! ;)
