Address Correction


The law of wedding invitations states that all invitations must contain at least one error. In accordance with that law, we misprinted the address for our reception hall.

Cactus & Tropicals is located at:

12252 S Draper Gate Drive (1325 E)
Draper, UT
84020

NOT

2252 S Draper Gate Drive (1325 E)
Draper, UT
84020

as was printed in the invitations...


That is all.

Shameless Wedding Promotion



If you have found your way to this little blog, you probably received an announcement for our wedding on May Day (May 1st). Our inaugural blog post is at the bottom of this page. You can also find below a brief visual story about how we met, should you care to know.

And now on to the wedding promotion:

Reception Hall:
Cactus & Tropicals is a greenhouse in Draper, UT.

12252 S Draper Gate Dr (1325 E)
Draper, UT
84020

Here is a small map that is linked to a Google map of the location if you need it:


Time:
7:00 - 10:00
Reception line ONLY until 8:00.

A light buffet dinner will be served all evening.
(that means good food – and lots of it!)

Various forms of merry-making to follow.

Wedding Registry:

For those wishing to view a registry, we are registered at Bed Bath & Beyond and Macy's (click on the links below to be taken directly to our registry list at that store):






















and now, some photos...







A story about us...

In the spirit of self-obsession that all good blogging inspires, we'll tell you our story:

In 2008 we met in one of these...



....which, however, was not inflatable




It was probably more like this




Sometime at the beginning of 2009,
Christian invited Lanée to go with him to this








She declined








A couple months later Christian was talking to Lanée over this








He suggested they go see this










Lanée said yes...


...but only after he called her and asked her out properly using this




















They had a good time so they went on a lot more of these



















Finally, after about 10 months of this






Christian gave Lanée one of these...


















Which actually looked more like this














So, now we are going to get married here




















Lanée & Christian
May 1st, 2010
[Insert fairy-tale ending cliché here]

Welcome to the Maiden Voyage of Lanée and Christian’s blog.

From the deck of this sound, new, Internet vessel, I will probably write many cynical, inappropriate and self-promoting things. My beautiful wife-to-be will surely write a great many witty, charming and intelligent things. Perhaps one day we will post copious pictures of cute and adorable things. But for now, you can see some photos of us that were graciously taken by Nick Stentzel, a talented photographer filmmaker and friend of mine. We'll also post some wedding reception info.

So, cheers to love and marriage.
