Our love story

We met by chance in college. I knew she was someone
special. She couldn't remember my name. I kept trying
anyway. Before long we fell in love.
Though our next 2 years were spent over 3000 miles apart, we never lost sight of each other.
Reunited at last, we set out on a 6 month trip through South America with no money to our names, carried by broken down buses. After countless food poisonings & life risking but life enrichening experiences, we are stronger than ever and getting married!

Three important details about our ultimate wedding.

1.Friends and Family together!
2.An outdoor, fresh and airy ceremony with the aromas of fresh flowers and the ocean breezes welcoming our guests to celebrate our love.
3.Single tables elegantly placed throughout the venue, offering an eclectic array of our favorite foods from around the world for a unique, intimate experience: Rich empanadas, soft French cheeses and colorful Spanish tapas; while creating a warm, social atmosphere encouraging everyone to let go, share laughs and make memories.

Our ultimate dream home.

A Spanish villa on a large open plot of land covered by vineyards, fruit trees and flowers. A sunny courtyard in the center of the house for morning coffee and fresh bread. Plenty of windows and natural light. Rooms decorated with pieces of furniture and art from our travels. A big, open kitchen to entertain friends, with stairs leading to a private wine cellar. A warm stone fireplace in the living room. The master bedroom would have a balcony covered in bougainvilleas looking out over the land.
