A Tale of Two Weddings

Proposal, pandemic, first wedding, second wedding

Jake proposed in January 2020 in the beautiful, desolate labyrinth that is Red Rock State Park. Little did we know, the globe was on the verge of the COVID19 pandemic. In March 2020, we halted planning and hoped the pandemic would resolve quickly. As the pandemic raged on we began to brainstorm alternatives. Jake and I couldn't wait to be married so we pivoted from a larger wedding to something incredibly small and lower risk. In May 2021 we were married by Elliot Thompson at the Ward family's farm, Hidden Acres, joined by immediate family. The ceremony took place in the barn to avoid and unexpected downpour. We ate and danced together. Jake and I were so happy we could get married when we did and how we did; however, we missed our friends and the rest of our families. We are so excited to finally celebrate with you all at this second wedding where we will renew our vows and party it up afterwards! We look forward to seeing you and creating more memories together. -Jane TL;DR - Jake proposed in 2020, the pandemic happened, we did a little wedding, now we do a big wedding and party with you!
