AUGUST 26th 2017
We are over joyed to welcome you to the most exciting day of our lives and looking forward to celebrating our love with close friends and family. Both of us are spilling over with gratitude for how you have supported our relationship over the past four years. During our surreal engagement we decided we wanted to share with you some of the same breathtaking landscapes and experiences, we will cherish always. What better way to do that then to invite you to the same locations and natural beauty we experienced. We are hoping our wedding weekend would not only be a celebration of our love for one another but also an opportunity to honor our love and friendship with you. Please be prepared to relax, have fun and celebrate the weekend away as we embark on our future as husband and wife.
The spark ignited the night Cory and Leslie met at a dinner party. Neither one had any idea that that night would be the beginning of a storybook romance. Even from their very first conversation, they caught glimpses of the person they had both been looking for, for as long as they could remember. It was remarkable, and exhilarating…but also a little scary.
Leslie was very reluctant to move forward in the relationship…at least at first. Leslie had first-hand knowledge of the realities of heartbreak. And as anyone who has experienced the same can tell you, the risk of that level of loneliness and pain is not something you want to jump into without having both eyes open. She was clear about what she wanted in a man, and not just in a man but a potential husband.
Cory was quite the opposite, actually. He was clear that he had found a treasure that was worth the type of matchless pursuit that would only end in matrimony. Cory was no stranger to the type of peerless tenacity it takes to accomplish great tasks, but he was up against the challenge—and the prize—that comes only once in a lifetime: the hand of his soulmate.
During this courting process, one for the ages, there was laughter and tears, awkward moments and first kisses, feeling butterflies and feeling at home in a way they have never felt before. Week after week, month after month, they continued to invest in their love for one another. After two years, the fateful moment came when Cory got down on one knee and changed the course of history for himself and his beautiful treasure—his soon-to-be bride, Leslie.
We’d be honored to have you be part of our love story and celebrate this union with us.
