Reception

Our Wedding

Allison and Petria met in September of 2019, at Allison's sister's Bachelorette party, and then proceeded to talk almost every day until their first date in February of 2020. When the world shut down in March, Allison had a choice to make. Commit to this person she'd been on one date with and hightail it to Nashville? Or ride out the pandemic at home in Long Beach. So she traveled to Nashville in April of 2020 to watch Petria get her PhD ... and the rest is basically history. Over the last five years, they've traveled all over the country and the world. Survived intern year (and most of residency). Switched jobs, got promotions. Moved to San Francisco and built an incredible community. Became WNBA season ticket holders. Got a 500k grant for cancer research. Spell-checked said grant application. GOT A DOG!! Went to couples therapy. Played in a Dodgeball league. Attended the ballet and the symphony. Danced to Chappell Roan's performance at Outside Lands. Ordered an embarrassing amount of sushi delivery. Got tattoos. Watched a lot of television. Celebrated love at some of their friends' weddings. And all of the things you'd expect two people in love to do. We're so excited to celebrate with all our loved ones this Labor Day weekend.

Things to Do

Registry2

We've lived together for 5 years and have plenty of "stuff"

Your presence at our wedding means the world to us—truly, that’s the gift. If you feel moved to contribute something extra, we'd love a contribution to our honeymoon or Valkyries season ticket funds by using the Venmo link below. If Venmo isn't your style, we'll also have a card box at the reception. Thank you for your love, your generosity, and for being part of our lives. We can’t wait to celebrate with you and start this next chapter of our lives together.

P.S. You might have noticed a broken registry link before ... we have some choice words about the Knot's tech support and they are not nearly as sweet and cute as our vows.
