Reception

Our Wedding

We met when we were just 15 and 16 through mutual friends on social media (classic for our generation). We started out as really good friends, and not long after Arden got her license, we made it official. Six years later… here we are!When Gabe left for the Air Force Academy, we did long distance for a while. After Arden graduated college, we decided it was time to finally be in the same place — so she moved to Colorado Springs. Since then, we’ve been building our little life together, complete with our Frenchie, Blu, who honestly might be the best dog on the planet.In 2024, Gabe proposed at the Broadmoor, a Colorado Springs staple. Arden had a pretty good idea something was up… mostly because Gabe didn’t touch his appetizer (which never happens). It was the perfect night, and now we can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter with all of you!

Tux vs. Suit: What's the Difference?

Formal (Black Tie Optional): Men typically wear a suit or tux, and women wear a long dress, formal gown, or elevated cocktail dress. Think polished, elegant, and dressy — but not as strict as full black tie.Color Request: To match our wedding palette, we’d love for guests to wear shades of blue — any tone from navy to sky. (Totally optional, but very appreciated!)
