Wedding day
This turns out to be a perfect reason to bring together our friends and family for a celebration/party/reunion of all our lives. We feel very strongly that we are saying yes to our life together with the support of all of you. Yes, it’s our wedding day, yet rather than have this time be just about us, we want our time together to be fun for all of us, with time to play, visit and nourish our bodies and spirits. We’ve arranged for wonderful live music to fill the air all day, good food and a variety of activities for all ages. It should be like a mini-Festival.
The ranch has been very special to the two of us as we’ve learned about each other at this beautiful retreat. We have spent much of our time together at this magical place and knew we wanted to invite all of you here to share our wedding day with us. We hope you have a memorable time with lots of fun and laughter. Thank you for coming.
