Join Clinton and Shane in an Event 15 Years in the Making

It's been a long time coming, but it's finally officially happening. We're very eager and excited to invite our friends and family to our wedding celebration! This is a story that started 15 years ago on a park bench in front of a dorm room. Come join us in honoring and commemorating this next milestone in our relationship.

Feel free to RSVP, book a hotel room, or contribute to our honeymoon fund! If you have questions, check out the details below or read our FAQ. If you just want to see some pictures of us over the years, we have that too.

The Groom

Clinton was just a poor college kid, 22, working on a double major when he met Shane.

He had no idea that a single date at Perkins (the grand opening, March 23, 2002!) would be the start of a 15 year (so far) relationship.

He would love to spend most days being lazy at home reading a book, binge watching something on Netflix, or playing video games. But Shane always finds an activity, plans a vacation, or makes him workout. And Clinton wouldn't have it any other way.

Shane's obvious devotion to him, unending support, and that sexy shaved head are just a couple of the many reasons he asked Shane to marry him.

The Groom

Shane was only 19 (still a teenager!) when he met a nerdy college kid online.

He drove the two to their first date, and still does most of the driving, today. Sometimes, he does that driving from the passenger seat.

Shane is fiercely protective of his friends and family, and will do anything for them. He loves riding his bike, spoiling his nieces and nephew, and bringing way too much food to any event he attends.

Clinton's infectious laughter, wit, charm, and easy going attitude are the reason he said 'yes.'

The Theme

It's about time!

Literally and figuratively! After being together for 15 year, it's about time that we are finally getting married. It's about time that we make it official and legal. It's about time we enjoy a tax break.

Also, the theme is about time passing, and time together, and the time we'll share together in the future. Expect lots of clock decorations, hourglasses, and even music from multiple decades.

 

We've lived together, we've visited other countries together, we've traveled together, and we've stayed in together. We've grown fat together, and gotten skinnier together. We've bought a house, and furniture, and clothes together.

We've laughed together, and bickered together, and cried together. 

And now we're finally getting married together. 

It's about time!

The Ceremony

August 12, 2017
5:00 PM

The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:00 PM at The Orchid Garden. If you are a friend of the groom, or a friend of the groom, there will be seating available. 

It should go without saying at this point, but this wedding is featuring two men. They will be exchanging vows, expressing their love, and sharing a kiss at the end. If this offends you... well, chances are pretty good you weren't actually invited, anyway.

The Reception

August 12, 2017
5:30 PM - 11:00 PM

The reception will follow the ceremony (as is tradition), and will also be at The Orchid Garden. There will be drinking, dancing, dining, and more drinking. 

Cocktail hour will occur between the ceremony and reception. Weather (and heat) permitting, this will be outdoors while we snap a few pictures inside.

The Food & Drink

Catered by 4 Rivers
Full Open Bar

We'll be serving a variety of bar-b-q meats and delicious sides. Enjoy a drink (or two, or three, or more) on us. If you have special diet needs, let us know - we can make arrangements.

Please keep in mind, this is a formal event, and we would like everyone to dress in their favorite formal attire. This is also an adult event with a full open bar, so please leave your children at home so you can properly enjoy yourselves!
