Dear Family and Friends,

As we prepare to celebrate one of the most meaningful days of our lives, we are so grateful for your love, prayers, and support! Your presence in our lives means the world to us, and having you by our side as we begin this new chapter is the greatest gift we could ask for. Because we are joining our lives from two different countries, much of our journey includes travel, legal steps, and settling into a shared future—across borders. From international flights to extended stays, visas, and setting up our first home together, the costs add up in ways that are not so traditional. For this reason, instead of physical gifts, we would deeply appreciate a contribution to our wedding and travel fund. Your support will help us bridge the distance and build a life together—side by side. We know that gifts come in many forms, and even your prayers and well-wishes mean so much to us.

Thank you for walking with us, loving us, and celebrating with us from near or far.

With all our love and gratitude,

Joel and Candice
