Just wanted to share a picture we received today from Nate Gowdy, who photographed our wedding for the Seattle Gay News, and let everyone know we are safely in Kaua’i, tucked away in a cottage on the Pacific Missile Range Facility in Barking Sands.

Today is the big day!
We are so excited! We had our rehearsal and dinner last night with our families and the wedding party, and then spent our last nights alone with our families.
Two days!
What a great week it has been so far! We have been really busy getting things done.
Three days!
Family and friends are beginning to arrive today in Seattle and we are entering the home stretch of preparations.
Four days!
We are in Seattle, beginning the final week of preparations before the wedding on Saturday. Everything is set, so we are just tying up the last few loose ends. We can’t wait to see our families this weekend, and only wish everyone else we know could be here to celebrate with us. We do plan to stream the ceremony on Livestream, so watch this space for details.
Love,

Six Days!
We are leaving tomorrow for Seattle to begin the most amazing week of our journey yet. Only six days until our wedding!

Engagement Photos, Part 1
Our good friend Jae Hansen (Photography by Jae) came to DC a few weeks ago and took some photos of Ben and me to celebrate our engagement. As is always the case with the two of us, we can never manage to be serious for more than a few minutes at a time. Jae is a great sport and managed to capture a few of these moments for posterity. You can check out some more on the other page of photos.
