The Proposal.

It was May 12th, 2023, atop NeahKahNie Mountain, where Abram swept Katie off her feet. He popped the question with his grandmother's timeless wedding ring, setting the stage for their journey to celebrate love. It was extra special because the very next day, they headed to celebrate her 100th birthday! A beautiful sunny day, stunning coastal views, and a proposal—we couldn't ask for more.

The River Love Affair:

Our hearts find peace by the river, where laughter, splashing, and swimming create unforgettable memories. We turned our love for relaxation into a laid-back wedding celebration weekend, surrounded by our favorite people—yes, that meant you!

You joined us for a carefree day before the wedding filled with love, laughter, and the soothing sounds of the river. Whether you were dipping your toes or diving right in, the celebration was all about embracing the joy of the moment, surrounded by the enchanting forest.

A Picnic to Remember:

We celebrated our special day with a casual potluck picnic reception. Embracing the timeless tradition of gathering over shared meals, we invited guests to contribute a dish to this memorable feast.

In addition to delicious food, we danced and celebrated at the historic White Clover Grange, where this venue's charm and rich history added an extra layer of magic to our festivities. Thank you for coming together to create joyful memories and share the warmth of love and community.

If you wish to get us a gift, we are working to convert our van to a camper.

Help us keep the trips coming and the adventures ongoing! We have not only a gift registry, but you can help fund the remodel.

There are plenty of opportunities to help us make this a reality.
