When we envision our wedding day, what is most important to us is to celebrate with the people who've played significant roles in our lives, both individually and as a couple. People who've created a sense of community for us and provided a foundation for our relationship. You hold a special place in our past, present, and future and your attendance at our wedding will make our celebration complete!
We invite you to celebrate our marriage on Friday, October 4th at the Chicago Botanic Garden. While we are so excited to welcome you to Olivia's hometown, we recognize that this is a travel destination for many of you. We sincerely appreciate those that are willing and able to make the trip and want to help make your travel plans as easy as possible. Please use this website for more information regarding the wedding weekend itinerary, travel recommendations, registry information, and RSVPs.
We truly cannot wait!
xx,
Olivia & Joe
