Our Wedding

We met as many couples in their 30's meet these days - online! Our first date at Mizu Izakaya started out great, then only got better as we moved on to ice cream at Little Man. We never looked back! Over the past year we have traveled internationally (Canada, London, and Japan), enjoyed meeting each other's families, had impromptu evening karaoke sessions, biked 100's of miles together, and worked on fixing up a 100+ year old house in Leadville (mostly Jay, occasionally interrupted by puppy pets and coffee dates with Erin). All the while, we have been slowly building a life together, learning how to survive both the highs and lows that life throws our way. We are so excited to share part of our journey together with the people that have helped to shape who we are today at our wedding!
