Welcome

×

We are thrilled to invite you to celebrate our special day with us! It would mean so much to have our favorite people, in one of our favorite places, for a day we won't ever forget.

We understand that destination weddings can be challenging for a variety of reasons.  Please know, there’s no pressure to join. If you are unable to attend, for whatever reason, just know that we are hosting a post-wedding celebration at Founders Brewery in Grand Rapids, Michigan on November 24th.

To those that will be traveling, we hope you make the most of your trip!  We recommend taking a long weekend... enjoy the ocean, mountains, amazing food and west coast vibe.  Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need help planning or have any questions. We can’t wait to see you!

Love,
Brian & Rachel

Gifts
Personal Note

Plane tickets and traveling are expensive, so your presence at the wedding is enough. For those that don't follow directions and really want to get us something, we are registered on Amazon. Any monetary gifts will go towards our Honeymoon in Kauai and the new home we just bought in Kalamazoo. We would prefer not to travel with gifts so please reach out if you would like our new address.
