FAQs
What does the dress code mean?
While formal attire is reccommended, it’s not required. Just wear something that makes you look and feel good! Weddings are the perfect opportunity to dress up, and we can’t wait to see you looking and feeling your best!
Is there a colour theme?
If you are able, please avoid dark greens and beige to avoid confusion with the wedding party.


What accommodations are available for out of town guests?
We are in the process of arranging a hotel room block but would love to get an idea of how many people would be interested in the meantime. There will be a prompt when you RSVP so we can keep record of the guests that may need it.
Will there be drinks?
We're having a toonie bar! Drinks tickets are only $2 for you and we'll take care of the rest. Why? To minimize waste and ensure we're only paying for the alcohol we use. The venue accepts both cash and card payments.
Can I bring a plus one?
Please refer to your invitation where it'll be specified if we were able to grant you a plus one. We had to make some tough decisions and wish we could invite everyone, but we had to keep the guest list limited. Thanks for understanding!
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
Both the ceremony and the reception will take place indoors at The Brownstone. The venue also has a patio that will be available throughout the evening.


Our first polaroid together circa 2022
Our Story
We first met in the spring of 2022 through the Calgary music scene—playing shows, sharing mutual friends, and ending up at the same events. At first, it was only small talk in rehearsals and quick hellos at shows. It wasn’t until months later that we finally had the chance to hang out and share a proper conversation. We clicked instantly, fell head over heels, and quickly became inseparable until August of 2023 when Craig moved to New York to study music. While navigating a year and a half of long distance calls and short trips between two countries, we knew we never wanted to be apart again. So on June 6th, 2024, Craig proposed—and Joanne said yes! Craig has since finished school and moved back home with Joanne as we prepare for the next chapter of our lives. ​​​
