Welcome to our wedding blog!
On this blog/website, you should be able to find most of the information
you need for the up-coming Engagement Party on Saturday, April 16, 2016, in Ann
Arbor, MI. I know that some of you
have probably already checked this site out (special shout-out to Bill, Steve, Paul, Cheri and Sandy!! Woot woot!) and are probably already familiar with this site/blog;
but, if you have not been to this website before, then this blog post and the
tab at the top titled “Other Parties” should contain all the information and
details you need for the party.
Just for a little bit of background, we created the Engagement
Party as a fun and informal way to celebrate with our co-workers and my family
in Michigan (…and, because Mom wanted excuse to party. Hahaha). We probably could have been more creative
with the name since Chip and I have been engaged for about eight (8) months now…but
who really cares as long as there’s a party, right?! lol!
If you received this invitation, you probably already got “the
run down.” But in case you have not received “the run down” ;), then here it is
(also, for more details see photos and comments below):

The family had a small Champagne tasting party at Mom’s house (Yay!!!)) to choose the champagne (see photo above) ...and below is the aftermath... Hahaha:
We chose Martini & Rossi Asti and R.S.V.P. Brut.
Hor d’oeuvre notes from the caterer with love... 😍 YUM!!
Chapel Hill: The venue is Ok, but
has sentimental value as so many friends and family events have taken place
here…it has a special place in our hearts.
We are REALLY looking forward to celebrating, partying and hanging out with everyone!!
See you there!! 😃😃😃
