Off to Aruba!
We want to thank all of you for making our wedding the greatest night of our lives! We had such an amazing time and loved seeing you all. As of this moment, we are getting ready to board our plane to Aruba for a much needed honeymoon and week off to relax. So again, thank you. We truly had a night we will never forget. See you all in a week!

Almost There
Hello Everyone,
Joe and I just wanted to let everyone know that weather permitting the ceremony will be held outside! If it is not raining or bitter cold we will be getting married outside by the lake, so please dress appropriately.
See you all on Friday!
thank you

I know this is terribly overdue, however I just wanted to send out a sincere thank you to everyone involved in making my shower such a special day, and to everyone who attended!
I was genuinely surprised and so happy to see everyone! My sister, mom and bridesmaids did such a great job, and Debbie’s cake was amazing. I hope everyone had a great time as well. I know a lot of people had to travel a long way, and some with pretty terrible weather, and I truly appreciate that!
Thanks again to everyone for all your generosity.
See you all soon, less than a month to go!

Engagement Session!!

This past Saturday Joe and I bundled up, headed up to Kent CT, and faced the freezing cold weather. We finally got the chance to meet our wedding photographer Danielle Fuller from Beyond The Lens Photography. We spent the afternoon taking pictures, laughing, and really getting to know each other. Danielle and her husband Joe are so down to earth, friendly and fun! Joe and I feel so lucky to have such a talented photographer to capture our big day. If you are interested stop by Danielle’s blog to see some of our engagement session photos, feel free to leave a comment too!
Thanks again Danielle for a great afternoon!

Updated Registries
We FINALLY completed our second and final registry at Bed Bath & Beyond. While we may add a few more items here or there, they are for the most part complete and ready for everyone’s use. Thank you all for your patience and if you are indeed buying something from one of our registries, thank you for your kind gift!

I know it’s been a little longer than promised, but I finally managed to find some extra time and get this website going for you all. From here on out this will be the best place to find any information you are looking for regarding our wedding. Also, if you have a question that is not on here, feel free to send us an email, give a call, or stop on by. Thanks for visiting!
PS – You probably noticed the site isn’t completely finished, huh? Yeah, still working on a few areas. But don’t worry, I have plenty of time off next week to really smooth this thing over.
