Dear family and friends,

As most of you know, our story began over a decade ago before we could even see it unfold ourselves. We weren't high school sweethearts messaging each other on AOL after the bell rang, but we did run with the same crowds often. (Quite literally at times). One of our earliest memories together was hiding in the woods after a certain unexpected visitor showed up to an unsupervised house party, blue and red lights flashing in the driveway.

Luckily, we survived. Brett graduated a year ahead of Leanne and went off to college in North Carolina while Leanne finished high school and stayed local at Rowan University. Brett's four years at Elon were followed by another four in Denver when he decided it was time for yet another change. He up and left for the big Apple which he would end up calling 'home' for quite some time. Through the many changes that Brett endured and the travels he conquered, Leanne was never too far from Marlton but always a journey away from him.

One day more than ten years after graduating high school, Leanne decided up to set her sights on the city that never sleeps. Brett got wind that she was moving on up to the East side and decided to send Leanne a private message. After rushing back - and by "rushing" I mean a 5 hour dead-stopped traffic car ride - from Labor Day weekend down the shore, we went on our first date together and have been inseparable since.

Fast forward to today and we are living in Philadelphia, planning our big day followed by our dream honeymoon in Greece. We thank you all so much for making this time in our lives so special and cannot wait to celebrate with all of you!

Let the adventure begin!
