John and our friends, Dave and Annette, were brought together on an icy day in late January. After Mass, the roads were still too icy to head home so the three headed to lunch. Dave and Annette had thought to introduce John and Mary Ellen previously, but it just didn't happen. Then when this fortuitous meeting occurred, it felt right to mention their friend, Mary Ellen. Two weeks later, John and Mary Ellen got together on a gorgeous 65 degree Feb. 3rd day...best first date ever!

Thank you for your loving response and support to our wedding and reception invitations. After considerable discussion and prayer, in the best interest of everyone's safety and in accordance with State and the Archdiocese of Indianapolis' guidelines we have made the difficult decision to postpone our wedding reception celebration until May 2021. We will be getting married this May 2nd as planned but with extremely limited participation as permitted by law. We look forward to celebrating a renewal of vows and reception with you in May 2021. We will update the details when they become available. Praying all of you stay safe and healthy. Sending our love, Mary Ellen and John
