Tidbits
How did you first meet?
Like most people in our generation, a dating app! Our first date was at a speakeasy in Fort Worth.
Who made the first move? How?
Jake sent the first message, challenging Rachel to a board game competition. She's been ducking that challenge ever since.
What was your most memorable date?
We like to celebrate our holidays with extravagant days together, including themed cocktails, movie marathons, and festive snacks!
What's your favorite activity together?
Rachel loves going to Six Flags, and Jake loves seeing Rachel happy.
Where are you going for your honeymoon?
Greece! Rachel is going to make Jake recreate several Mamma Mia scenes, with choreographed song and dance.
What's the most memorable trip you have taken together?
We went to Vegas in August together to see Shania Twain. The people around us at the craps table made thousands of dollars while we were playing, but we somehow still lost money.
We’re on the same page about
Bedtime. You won't catch us up past 9:30.
A life goal of ours
Finding a way to both be stay at home parents. Let us know if you have any idea how to make that happen.
We are regulars at
Costco. Best $8 prosecco money can buy.

Travel
Getting In
We recommend flying into either Love Field (Southwest) or DFW International Airport (everyone else)!
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Alvarado, an IHG Hotel, Village Park Drive, Alvarado, TX, USA
This is where we are having our room block, with a limited number of rooms available for a discount until April 25th. Please use the link here to get the special rate! If you prefer to call instead, press option 2 and mention the Homan Gray Wedding block.
Travel in DFW
Texas is a driving state, so renting a car or Uber/Lyft are your best bet for getting around the city. Our wedding venue is a little off the beaten path, so we wouldn't recommend Uber/Lyft for traveling to and from the wedding. If you rent a car and plan on drinking at the wedding, please do so responsibly!!

Please check your invite for your +1!
Are kids welcome?
If your kids are invited, it will be included on the invitation! Anyone is welcome to the Thursday welcome dinner.
What will the weather be like?
The reception will be indoors, but the ceremony will be outdoors in the Texas heat. The average temperature in May is mid to high 80's, but we're hoping all the Michigan guests will bring down some cooler weather!
