Whats uuuup family and friends,

As you all know, we love each other a whole lot and we're right there with you; we never thought we'd see the day of EITHER of us getting married. YET HERE WE ARE. :P

We have chosen to forgo a wedding and are eloping to Italy October 31st, 2017. We know you all want to be there and it was a difficult decision to make.

This is partly due to our scattered loved ones and the nightmare it is to actually plan a wedding.

SIDE NOTE: It didn't really feel right (for me, Ashley) after the passing of my grandfather. (I will never get my grandfather/pseudo dad dance, YES I do have weird "girly" things.. sometimes.)

We do not want anyone to feel obligated to donate. However should you be compelled, we would be endlessly thankful of your support.

For those who want to make our trip a little more interesting, we've created a "dare certificate" instead of just a plain and boring "gift certificate" where we URGE you to leave us (tasteful) dares to complete while on our trip. Of course we would have to include video/picture evidence.

We are also brainstorming a Kickstarter-like gift tree, where if you donate, you'll receive a slideshow/video of our marriage and adventures... etc. It's what we feel is necessary to give back to you all, especially because we know you'd love to be there.

We love all of you and will be throwing a party in Idaho early 2018 and of course anyone who wants to join is invited! Once the day gets closer, we will be sure to send everyone an invitation.

So, I will end with... It's the BAZP! (The Brandon Ashley Zahn Project)
