Two kids raised on the same Saturday mornings, finally in the same place at the same time.

Our story

Eight years of co-op, one final level.

They grew up three area codes apart, watching the same channels, saving on the same memory cards. When they finally met in 2018, the references lined up like a cheat code. Choose your player; both come with the wedding.

Player H · The BrideHailey

Knows every Destiny's Child harmony, including the one you think you know. Grew up on American Girl dolls, Charmed reruns, and wooden playgrounds that would never pass inspection today. Undefeated at UNO.

Player T · The GroomTristan

Raised on Saturday-morning cartoons and the honest opinion that Digimon deserved more respect. Kept a Tamagotchi alive longer than most houseplants. Still owns the GameCube. Will absolutely cry first.

A new party member

The best-man question settled itself.

Somewhere along the way they made a small person with excellent curls and strong opinions about dinosaurs. He'll be the one walking the rings down the aisle very, very carefully — and lobbying the DJ shortly after.

Artifact 02Gordy, hatched on engagement day

The family heirloom

Meet Gordy.

The official Gordon-gotchi. He hatched the day we got engaged and he is contractually family now. Keep him fed until November — a happy Gordy means good weather on the big day. Probably.
