We have been on quite the adventure over the past few months, and definitely need to catch everyone up. In the meantime, you can read about the issues we’ve had since Matthew got his orders to Japan.
All our love,

Five Days!
We are heading to Seattle this morning to begin our wedding week! Everything is in order, but we have just a few final things to get in place before Saturday.
StoryCorps Military Voices Initiative
Ben and I went yesterday to the Human Rights Campaign offices, where StoryCorps‘ Military Voices Initiative was set up to record the stories of military families. Here’s a link to ours (m4a audio, 40 minutes).
Department of the Interior Valentine’s Day Video
Hi friends and family!
We were recently featured in a video put out by the Department of the Interior on Valentine’s Day celebrating all the proposals that have taken place at American landmarks. Check out those handsome devils at :16!
Love,
Ben and Matthew.

Friends and family:
As you already know, we will be getting married in Seattle on May 25, 2013. What you might not know is that we are apparently setting a trend! Check out this article from The Advocate: Get Hitched in Seattle, Then Stay for the Food.
Did you know we have been featured in The Advocate before? They featured photos of us at the 2012 Marine Corps Birthday Ball, news of our engagement and Matthew’s service under DADT.
Love,
Ben and Matthew
Welcome!
Hello family and friends!
Welcome to our website! Here you will find information and details about our upcoming wedding. As of this week, we have a date and a venue picked out: Saturday, May 25, 2013, in Seattle, Washington!
We have so many friends and family all around the world that we want to share all the exciting details with. We know, however, that not everyone is going to be able to join us for the actual event in Seattle (if all 103k people who liked this photo on Facebook came, we wouldn’t even be able to hold the event at CenturyLink Field!). However, for those attending, this site is where you will find info regarding travel and hotels.
More details to come. For now, please enjoy these photos of the famous White House proposal that made us an international Internet sensation (for a day).
Love,
Ben and Matthew
