We did it! Mr. & Mrs. Bires ❤️ (and Elvis!)
Welcome Family and Friends
After months of intense wedding planning (zero months), we’ve decided to get married in Las Vegas. Yes, Elvis. Of course, Elvis. We’re skipping the big wedding and traditional registry (we don’t need “stuff”) to focus our energies on renovating the house. With that in mind, we’ve set up a “Baby, Let's Play House” home renovation fund if you’d like to celebrate with us as we start our new life together. No pressure - just joy and gratitude.

-
Jailhouse Rock
...and a broken cement walkway in need of repair.
-
All Shook Up
...using power tools that aren't quite what they used to be.
-
Burning Love
...not in this old, obnoxiously large, brown rock-faced fireplace!
-
Don't Be Cruel
...by keeping me in the dark and burning up! We need some overhead lighting and a ceiling fan, please!
-
Always On My Mind
...and always on the road! Commuting back and forth until we are renovated and consolidated is taking a financial toll, just as the actual packing and moving and consolidating thing will... 🙃
-
Blue Suede Shoes
...beat Everything Brown. It's a 1980s split-level house. Enough said. 🤪
-
Suspicious Minds
...and wall color. Is it beige? Did it used to be beige? Are those ceilings yellow? What the heck is that stain?
-
Heartbreak Hotel
...and heartbreaking curb appeal! The house needs a paint job.
-
Love Me Tender
...and nurse me back to health when I fall through the rotting deck floor.
-
Can't Help Falling in Love
...and tripping over the 43-year-old torn-up, threadbare carpet!
-
Viva Las Vegas
And viva los baños! These bathrooms need more than a Vegas "glow-up." 🙃
-
(You're the) Devil in Disguise
The house has "good bones" as they say, but with everything that needs to be done after 43 years of little to no upgrading, there are costs we haven't even considered.
