Our Story

We met at the Lind Combine Derby — not exactly where most people expect a love story to begin, but that's kind of the point. We were both students at Washington State University, and somewhere between the dust and the noise, we found each other.

We can't wait to celebrate with you on the Oregon coast.

Good to know

Are there restrooms near the beach?

Yes — there is a public restroom at the beach access point at Laneda Ave and 1st St, right near where the ceremony will be held. The winery has full restroom facilities for the reception.

Where should I park?

Manzanita in the summer gets busy, so walk from your accommodation if you can. If you need to drive, street parking along Laneda Ave is the main option — if that's full, check the public parking lot on 5th Street.

Are kids welcome?

We love the little ones in your life — bring them along if that works for your family. Just keep in mind it'll be a long day on the beach, so plan accordingly!

When do I need to RSVP?

Please RSVP by June 15, 2026. This gives us time to finalize everything with our venues and caterer.

In lieu of gifts

Your presence is truly the only gift we need. But if you'd like to do something in our honor, we'd be so touched by a donation to one of these organizations that mean a lot to us.
