Our Wedding

Our first date was supposed to be dinner. Instead, we found ourselves roping with Sam's friends, and honestly should have known right then that there would be a lot of roping in our future. What started as one unexpected evening turned into something neither of us saw coming. We became best friends fast. We were intentional about it long conversations, real honesty, and so so so many laughs. We're a little bit opposite and that works for us! Sam is quiet. I am... not always. But when Sam makes a joke, it's always a good one. He has a way of balancing us, grounding our world and keeping everything moving. Together we laugh a ton, spend a lot of time on new adventures, and are always looking for something to eat...Sam is ALWAYS hungry. We can't wait to spend forever making new memories and growing together through all of the seasons. Our story just started!

Travel & Hotel

We're getting married in one of Utah's most beautiful corners and there's no shortage of ways to make a weekend (or week) of it. Whether you're after adventure, relaxation, or a little of both, the Heber Valley and Park City have you covered. Get OutsideHiking &amp; Biking — 400+ miles of trails in and around Park City, from easy lakeside strolls to serious mountain singletrack. Fly Fishing — The Provo River is a Blue Ribbon trout stream. Guided or solo, it's one of the best fishing spots in the West. Horseback Riding — Explore the valley on horseback through guided rides in the surrounding mountains and meadows. ATV &amp; RZR Rentals — Hit the backcountry trails around Wasatch Mountain State Park with a guided or self-guided off-road adventure. On the WaterDeer Creek &amp; Jordanelle Reservoirs — Two stunning reservoirs minutes from the venue. Rent a boat, paddleboard, or just soak up the views. Homestead Crater — A geothermal hot spring inside a 55-ft limestone dome. Swim, soak, snorkel, or scuba dive in 90–96°F mineral water, year round. Over-Water Zipline — Zipline Utah at Deer Creek is one of the longest over-water ziplines in the world. Not for the faint of heart. Thrills &amp; FunUtah Olympic Park — Bobsled rides, zip lines, an alpine slide, and a museum celebrating Park City's 2002 Olympic legacy. Alpine Coaster — Park City Mountain's 3,000-ft luge-style coaster is one of the longest in the world. Pure fun. The Heber Creeper — A historic steam train that winds through Provo Canyon past Deer Creek Reservoir. Great for families. Hot Air Balloon — Float above the Wasatch Mountains at sunrise. One of the most breathtaking ways to see the valley. Food, Drink &amp; CultureHistoric Main Street — Park City's heart, lined with boutiques, galleries, and some of the best restaurants in Utah. High West Distillery — Utah's first legal distillery since the 1870s. Whiskey flights and hearty alpine food in a cozy downtown saloon. Heber Valley Artisan Cheese — Award-winning cheeses from local family-run creameries. A must-stop for food lovers. Golf — Three courses in the valley — Wasatch Mountain, Soldier Hollow, and Homestead — all with stunning mountain backdrops. Scenic DrivesGuardsman Pass — A winding high-altitude road connecting Midway to Big Cottonwood Canyon. Jaw-dropping views, especially in the fall. Cascade Springs — A beautiful 7.5-mile drive from Midway to natural mountain springs. Easy, scenic, and completely worth it.
