With love

We are getting married, and we would be so happy to have you with us for our vows, tea ceremony, lunch, and celebration.

Cinematic postcards

These portraits are our Wes Anderson-inspired invitation world, a playful nod to the Grand Budapest mood that caught our hearts. The wedding itself will be at Ciao Ristorante.

From the front desk

A few notes from your concierges, filed with love.

Day jobs

Germaine teaches for a living; Eric codes for a living. Between students and syntax, both of them spend their days making sense of beautiful chaos.

Recharge

Eric recharges in silence. Germaine recharges the room. One enjoys calm, focus, and deep work; the other brings stories, music, plans, and a surprising amount of enthusiasm.

Big Bang

When Germaine says Big Bang, she means K-pop legends. When Eric says Big Bang, he means the one that started the universe.

Introverts

Eric and Germaine are both introverts, technically. They may quietly hide from crowds, but with the people they love, they become very present and occasionally quite intense.

Snacks

Germaine says snacks are essential. Eric says snacks require review. The review usually ends with both of them eating the snacks.
