Hello friends and family,

We are honored you will share in our special day - and in our future bundle of joy! That's right! We're having a wedding AND a baby. Sarah will be six months and counting on our wedding day.

What's the rush you say? Why wait is what we say!

We're lucky to already have a home full of everything we need and plan to have a zero-waste kid (more below), which means we are requesting the all-powerful tool: cash!

Your gift will help us pay for the wedding, provide a financial buffer during our maternity leave, and start an education fund for this little one. Some cash might get used to getting specific things like a new car seat, specific items we can't find second-hand or help us hire specialists during our early parenting stages. We have a few options for you to specify how your gift gets used.

Our zero-waste kid: Our goal is to have 90%+ of our baby's toys, clothing, gadgets come to us second-hand. Baby stuff is a HUGE contributor to landfills and we hope to set up this little one for a long, beautiful future — which means we are going to put our money where our mouth is by reducing our landfill contribution.

If giving cash straight to us isn't your thing, there is an option to make a donation to Free2Be A Kid (https://www.free2beakid.com/), the organization that has already helped Sarah stay comfortable with *free* used Maternity clothing and helped us prepare with an arsinal of infant clothing, blankets, and more.
