an evening with lisa
(AND ALSO DUSTIN)
we got married, unfortunately.
The evening of May 27, 2016 in San Diego.
What a day, really. I mean, sure, it was the Friday of Memorial Day weekend, but it's not like anyone else would schedule an event. No, wait - Donald Trump did. Right across the street.
That was weird.
Anyway, we got married. It was pretty great. It's was downtown near the Gaslamp district, in a nifty urban loft, with a food truck catering the gig, whiskey and tequila and champagne*, dancing, laughter, nasally accents, a modicum of swearing**, a bunch of cool people dressed up, and one person being in love, and one person giving up.
And that's all you can really ask for out of life, really.
*Prosecco – we're not that elite, and you'll live
** Fuck, really?! Really. But not too much.

It's a pretty cozy urban loft right downtown in San Diego off the Gaslamp district. We're just a few blocks from PetCo Park and surrounded by a pile of hotels and bars and restaurants and such.

We're still ironing out some kinks in locations, but here's what you can expect.
THURSDAY, MAY 26
PIZZA PARTY "REHEARSAL" DINNER
6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
517 Plaza Del Cid, Chula Vista, CA 91910
If you're in town - you're invited. This is a super-casual "let's have pizza because we're sick of planning" thing.
We want all of our friends or family that are in town early to feel like they're welcome to join if they want.
You will need a car to get here though.
If you want to come, let us know! (and we can also figure some carpooling out)

CEREMONY
5:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Luce Loft | 1037 J St, San Diego, CA 92101
This will be a short, likely standing, ceremony so don't be late or you'll miss it (unless you want to miss it).
The less time someone has to object to the wedding, the better for Dustin.

REGISTRY
REGISTRY
We've registered at three different places. Amazon–for general stuff and appliance-y goodness, Honeyfund—a donation site geared towards specific Honeymoon activities, and Crate & Barrel—for your newlywed-grade pots, plates and what have you. You're free to also give us checks if that's your speed, or even video games, which one of we love.
But in all seriousness, you really don't need to get us anything. You're coming to our wedding–that takes commitment and time and finances from you, and that is something that means plenty. We heard from other people that get married that it's helpful to have a registry, because some people will get gifts regardless, and you might as well make sure if someone wants to get you something, it's something that you'll use - so that's why we also have a registry.
