.. support the future Bar and Bat Mitzvahs! Jhon wants to field a soccer team (yikes!). May we be so blessed! We will start investing this money to lay their path to college and beyond. Support the fund for our future kids. Don’t worry, if they don’t become doctors and engineers, we will make them pay you back.

As our community spans multiple states and countries, we hope to celebrate our marriage with family and friends across the world: Miami, Durham, San Diego, Brazil and Israel. Support our future visit to Israel: Jhon’s first trip and a special opportunity to sanctify our union in the Holy Land. We long to experience Israel together; meeting family and friends, hiking her mountains, bathing in her waters, and exploring Julie’s ancestral home city of Tzfat. Support this once-in-a-lifetime holy adventure for the newlyweds. Better yet, come join us on the journey!

Most of you know that we met on the dance floor. Dancing is and always will be the spark to our fire. Salsa is where it began, but Brazilian Zouk captures our hearts. Kizomba, tango and west coast swing are on the horizon. We love continuing to grow as dancers and partners through classes, socials and festivals, which can come at quite a cost. Help support our favorite hobby! Most importantly, come dance with us!

One of our favorite pastimes is to imagine our first home together. Taking notes from our years of watching HGTV, we are saving to buy our high-potential fixer-upper and create the finest do-it-yourself, weekend-warrior home oasis. Support making our dream of home ownership and creating the epicenter of our future family a reality. Above all, plan your future visits! (Come hungry; Jhon makes a mean Challah).
