We never set out to throw a “destination” wedding, but when your families span 10 states, and your friends come from every time zone, somebody’s getting on a plane no matter what.

From that realization, Las Vegas was the quick and easy choice. It’s where our wedding band, John Earl’s Boogieman Band, is based; it’s where we met, 19 years ago, while working at a radio station there together; and it is, after all, one of the easiest places to get to from just about anywhere in the country.

We know cross-country travel isn’t always easy, or cheap, so we thank you in advance for making the effort to spend this special weekend with us. We could say this a thousand different ways and it would still be true: it just won’t be a party without you.
