I joined Coalition Strength and Conditioning in January of 2019 where Henry was coaching classes. We chatted in between and during classes through the winter and slowly started to get to know each other more. When the CrossFit Open was taking place that spring, our gym arranged a get together for folks to come in on a Friday night, do the workout, and eat some white castle burgers after. I kept score for Henry, and after the workout, while the white castle was being served, I asked him if I could eat the pickles he took off his burger. We chatted all night and the rest was history.
After 3 long years of grad school, we finally went on the Euro Trip I'd been suggesting. After 4 nights in Lisbon and 2 nights in Venice, we arrived to Florence. We'd scheduled a wine tour my sister and brother in law highly recommended that would take us through the Chianti region and to a very sweet family owned winery, Poggio Amorelli. We were scooped up in a fancy van, visited a few small towns in the hills, and finally arrived at the winery. After a truly delicious lunch, lots of wine tasting, and some banter with our server, Henry decided this was the moment. He planned a scheme with our server and one of the owners. I was wearing my grandmothers skirt, Henry was wearing all his sentimental bling; he asked, I said yes, and now we can't wait to celebrate with all of our favorite people!

Home of the original cuban, and also part of how we ended up at Hotel Haya! Treat yourself.
Who doesn't love roller coasters inside a zoo?
One of Tampa's new Michelin star restaurants! If you go, let us know how it is ;)
Great coffee and a cute boutique on St. Pete Beach!
If you have a gluten allergy, or even if you don't, their food is fantastic and everything is gluten free!
Come for the coffee, stay for the cocktails
Unfortunately due to the venue limitations we can not accommodate a plus one for every guest. Please refer to your invitation to check if you have a +1.
Celebrating with us on our wedding day is the biggest gift of all, nothing else is needed nor expected. However, should you wish to honor us with a gift, we've created a wish list of a few items to help us get our home started. Some of the items on our list may be best for groups to go in on together! Currently we're registered directly with Zola. You can see the items on our registry here: https://www.zola.com/wedding/soontobesiegels/registry
We love kids, but our wedding is an adults only event.
Our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception are all happening on site at Hotel Haya! If you're staying at a different hotel, or an airbnb, both Uber and Lyft are prevalent in the Tampa Bay area, or you can hop on the TECO Street car if you're staying nearby! http://www.tecolinestreetcar.org/home.html
Our wedding will be summertime semi-formal. Think colorful, linens, silks, and anything that makes you feel like your best self! Ties are optional, good vibes are not. Stay tuned for some outfit suggestions!
