Trevor and Angela met through a happy coincidence - Angela needed a new website for her artwork and found Trevor through a mutual friend. They became fast friends on messenger as he helped her learn a new programming language, struggle with bugs in the code, and they chatted about their lives on the side. It was many months before they met in person, and after a few fun get-togethers with friends he asked her out on a date. (Over messenger, of course.)

They've been together since that first date on December 12th, 2004. After five years, five different dwellings, two degrees earned, two epic adventures (one around Europe and one across Canada), and many, many more websites & adventures it was clear that neither was interested in getting rid of the other. So, they decided to make it permanent. They were engaged to be married on Christmas Day, 2009, and are excited to invite you to their wedding on the tenth of July, 2010.

Engagement Photoshoot

The Wedding ceremony and Reception will take place atop Grouse Mountain on Saturday, July 10, 2010. The precise hours have yet to be set but we are anticipating an afternoon ceremony and evening reception. Grouse Mountain is in North Vancouver, an easy drive from the city of Vancouver. If you are coming from away for the wedding, we encourage you to stay in Vancouver itself.

We are looking into group events for our out-of-town guests, as well as group hotel discounts and transportation to and from the wedding event. We will let you know if and when these options become available and if they do not work out we will provide you with your best options for lodging and transport.

More information about Vancouver from a visitor's perspective will follow, but for the time being you should be aware that the ceremony will be outdoors and to get to the venue a (smooth) gondola ride will be required.

SECOND CELEBRATION

Angela's family tree extends very far and we understand that not everyone will be able to travel to Vancouver for the wedding. To accommodate these beloved relatives, there will be a second celebration in Easton, Pennsylvania in October, 2010. The exact date has not yet been secured, please check back for the announcement!

Trevor and Angela have been living together for over four years and recently purchased a tiny apartment in downtown Vancouver. They have everything they *truly* need, and there is unfortunately little space available for large appliances, serving platters and decor.

The situation is complicated by the fact that shipping items across the border is quite expensive. Gift cards purchased in the United States quite often will not work in Canada, even if the store has locations in Canada.

In light of these circumstances, if you choose not to give a gift, we will still love you.

If you choose to give a gift, thank you very much for your generosity. Please consider selecting something from our gift registry, or contributing to our honeymoon fund (we are planning our next grand adventure!). All of the stores listed on the registry will allow you to purchase items from the US and will be delivered to us in Canada.
