Our Wedding

We are so excited to celebrate our wedding with you in beautiful Northern Michigan—truly a destination to remember! We understand that traveling for a wedding can be a significant commitment and expense, and we deeply appreciate the effort it takes to join us for this special occasion. Traverse City is a vibrant resort town, especially popular from May to October. As a result, accommodations can fill up quickly, and rates tend to be higher during the peak season. We highly recommend reserving your stay as soon as possible to ensure you have the best options available. All of the hotels require a 2-night minimum stay. To assist with your planning, we’ve compiled a selection of local accommodations and secured special rates at the Delmar, where our celebration will be held, as well as at other nearby hotels. (See Accomodations Page) We can’t wait to celebrate with you and look forward to welcoming you to our home here in Northern Michigan!

It all began in Montauk in 2017, when E&amp;E first met at Liars, a local dive bar. Some say it was love at first sight!After a brief but memorable encounter and a few exchanged text messages, life took them in different directions.Months passed with little contact until, in February 2018, fate brought them together again. While Ethan was working on a ship in New Jersey, he decided to take a chance and showed up on Elizabeth’s doorstep in New York City. That spontaneous reunion turned their story into a true adventure—and marked the beginning of an extraordinary love story.Now, surrounded by the people they love, Ethan and Elizabeth can’t wait to celebrate the next chapter of their journey together!
