Story

We met at a house party in high school, dated, went to prom, packed a ton of young love into our last summer together and then went our separate ways to university and college.

23 years later, on a fateful Thanksgiving weekend I tracked Scott down, left a rambling message on his work phone and asked him if he wanted to catch up. Emails turned into text messages, which then turned into long-long phone conversations. We knew very quickly that the spark had never extinguished; we still had a connection and wanted to be together again.

Scott moved in with me in Toronto; however, we eventually ended up in Ottawa and then finally took a big leap and moved across the country to Alberta.

FAQs

Frackin' FAQs

When is the RSVP deadline?

Please RSVP by March 31st, so we can have an accurate headcount. :)

Can I bring a date?

Yes you can. Please check your RSVP for your +1!

What will the weather be like?

It's Canada in August! It's beautiful!
But as Canadians you know the deal....be prepared because this is a backyard wedding!

Where should I park?

There is plenty of street parking near our house.

What should I wear?

We are keeping it pretty casual for a wedding. Tuxedos and gowns are not recommended. :)

Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?

BOTH! It is an indoor / outdoor fiesta!
The ceremony will be held in the backyard (which is outdoors).

What kind of shoes should/shouldn't I wear?

Calling all ladies! Do not wear stiletto heels. I repeat, do not wear stiletto heels. There are a bunch of grassy/dirt areas that you might have to walk in so wear chunky heels, flats, sandals, cowboy boots. flippers, clogs, sneaks or really whatever you want....(except stilettos).

Are there Taxis and Ubers "to or from or in" Carstairs?

Carstairs is a very small town and therefore has no Taxis or Ubers. You will need to drive, be driven or take the shuttle bus here.

Is there a gifts registry?

No. There is no gift registry. We do not want anyone to bring gifts or send gifts or make gifts or bake gifts... or you get the idea.

Whom should I call with questions?

Please email our lovely wedding coordinator Scott - scottcmartin@gmail.com
