Save our date!



I'm assuming if you are checking this for the first time you have just received our save the date cards! We couldn't be more excited that our wedding is only 4 and a half months away! We are hoping that you all will be able to make it. It is a friday wedding and is in Charlevoix, MI which is about 4 hours north of Detroit. Ryan and I know this is a hike for almost everyone, including us, but we would be honored if you could make it.

We will be sending out invitations in the next month or two and in there will be your RSVP card and all that. If you know right away you can't make it, you can let us know... If you know you definitely can, you might want to look at some of the options we found for sleeping accomodations. Charlevoix is a resort town so we are all assuming that the month of June will be full in no time and considering there is probably a wedding at our location on the saturday of our wedding weekend rooms will go fast. So think ahead if you can!

Mine and Ryan's family will be staying at a place called:
The Stafford's Bay View Inn. This is a bed and breakfast in Petosky, MI and is only 20 minutes from the wedding location. We would love for as many people stay here that want to! It's a beautiful B&B right on the water and in a great little town. All the rooms are gorgeous, not cheesy or chinsy at all! Here is their website... They only let us block 5 rooms at time but you can say you are with the Pepper/Bence party and they will extend our need for rooms as they fill up.

We haven't set up any room blocks anywhere other than the B&B bc we didn't know when people would come and where they would want to stay. If you need any help at all with names for places to say, PLEASE call me or email me!

Love to you all and we can't wait and hope to see you all in June!
