Our Story

We met in 2019 while working at a school in Washington, DC, and quickly realized that we love hanging out! Since then, we’ve bonded over travel, music, memes, going to the gym, DnD, raising cats and guinea pigs, and of course, a healthy amount of sushi.

From DC to Philly (where we met so many of you between 2021–2025), we’ve grown through big moves, graduations, career shifts, and plenty of amazing hangs. Somewhere along the way, we built a life we’re really proud of, and we’re incredibly grateful for you, the friends and family who’ve been part of it.

We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Q & A

What time should I arrive?

Please arrive by 4:15pm.

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30pm in the Tiffany Gallery. We recommend arriving a little early to settle in and enjoy the space before we get started.

What is the dress code?

We invite you to dress in cocktail or semi-formal attire.

Suits, dresses, creative touches welcome, as MoCA Arlington is an art gallery! Polished and celebratory is the vibe.

Can I bring a plus one?

Due to the intimate size of our wedding, invitations reflect the guest(s) included. Please reach out to the couple if you have any questions about who is included on your invitation.
