The Beginning

Our Story

It started with a first date in South Florida. Dinner at The Honor Bar in Palm Beach — the kind of easy, unhurried evening where neither person is watching the clock — and then a walk over to The Breakers, where the night stretched a little longer than either of us planned.

Somewhere between the first drink and the last, we both knew.

We had a plan after that. A sensible one, with all the usual milestones in all the usual order. Life read our plan, made a few edits, and handed it back without comment — and our greatest surprise arrived well ahead of schedule, rearranging everything for the better.

So we're doing this the way we've done all of it: a little out of order, entirely on purpose, and surrounded by the people we love most. Come find us on the water in Jacksonville.

"Some of the best things arrive ahead of schedule."

April 22, 2027

Boarding at time to come
Ceremony to follow

Where The Royal Princess

Jax Yacht Charter
1501 Riverplace Blvd, Unit Dock
Jacksonville, FL 32207

Attire Black Tie

Tuxedos and floor-length gowns. A wrap or jacket is wise — it can be breezy once we're on the river.

Reception To Follow

Dinner and dancing aboard the yacht. Full timeline coming soon.

Please Note

Our ceremony takes place aboard a yacht that departs the dock at a set time. Please plan to arrive at least thirty minutes before boarding — once the Royal Princess leaves, she can't come back for latecomers.

Coming to Jacksonville

Travel & Stay

Fly into Jacksonville International Airport (JAX) — about 25 minutes from downtown and 35 minutes from the beaches. Rideshare is easy throughout the city, and we'd recommend it for the evening of the wedding.

Downtown • Closest to the Dock

DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront

1201 Riverplace Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32207

On the Southbank riverwalk, a short and pleasant walk down the same street as our dock. The most convenient choice if you'd rather not drive at all.

Oceanfront • Make a Weekend of It

One Ocean Resort & Spa

1 Ocean Blvd, Atlantic Beach, FL 32233

The area's best beachfront hotel, about 30 minutes east of the dock. Worth it if you're extending the trip. Margaritaville Beach Hotel (715 1st St N, Jacksonville Beach) is a lively, more casual alternative right in Jax Beach.
