After eight years, two cities and one very persuasive dog, we are getting married on the twelfth of September. There is nothing we'd like more than to have you in the room when we do.

Eight years, briefly
A friend's wedding, 2018
Seated at the same table entirely by accident, and neither of us moved for the rest of the night.
The first proper date, 2019
Dinner that was meant to take an hour and somehow ran until the restaurant turned the lights on.
One set of keys, 2021
A small apartment with terrible light, a very good kitchen, and just enough room for both our books.
The question, 2024
Asked at home on an ordinary Tuesday, with no ring, no speech and no hesitation whatsoever.
The twelfth, 2026
And now the part where all of you are invited.
Your being there is the whole of the gift
Two weeks in Portugal, taken slowly, with no alarm set once.
Toward the kitchen table we have been talking about for years.
A donation in your name to the food bank here in Troy.
All our love
