always a pleasure meeting other couples from home who understand what having a partner in active duty is like 🤎

we totally understand the sacrifices and adventures this life brings and salute you.

and to our fellow islanders, we're sending extra love and good energy as this super typhoon passes!

did you know self-solemnization is recognized in colorado?

meaning if you want a superrrrrr intimate day with your partner, you don't need the signature of an officiating party. better yet, you can have your dog or pet sign your wedding certificate!

all you have to do is walk into a County Clerk's office with photo ID (appointment may be required), fill out some quick paperwork, and sign your names. there's typically no waiting period, so you can file it right then.

we love this type of solemnization because it gives couples an opportunity to spend photos on what really matters them: remembering such a life changing time with each other. capturing this intimate time for melissa and ryan will always hold such fond memories for us too.
