Monica & Christopher

The Beginning of Our Love Story

A Love Story for the Books

A tale of a teacher and a designer who overcome the pandemic of the decade through lesson plans, sawdust, and car cruises.

This story captures the growth in character development through love, laughter, tears, and the bittersweet truth of life - nothing is ever perfect ,but you can come pretty damn close with someone by your side.

The Bride

A short snippet about the bride.

A devoted educator by day, Monica knows every aisle at Target better than most people know their own neighborhoods, and yet still manages to make each trip feel like a treasure hunt. Her favorite pastimes include crocheting cozied up with a heated blanket—in July—and savoring precisely one spoonful of Rita’s Italian Ice before storing it in the freezer as a sacred artifact. She’s my partner-in-snacks, my co-pilot in life, and the only person I want to keep missing road turns with for decades to come.

The Groom

A short snippet about the groom.

An Industrial Designer by day and a woodworker by night unless the bride needs attention again. His favorite things to do are car cruises with the 1971 Datsun or the 1989 President - both of which need TLC from time to time ( or all the time). He is the most caring individual who can be a perfectionist at times, but is willing to take a detour of unprecedented adventures with his passenger - princess.

We hope you’ll join us on this special day.
