Desiree and I have chosen our favorite restaurant (for our Facebook/Instagram followers, yes, it's the same place we check into sometimes 3 times a week),
Brü Grill & Market as the venue for the wedding and reception.
It seemed fitting since it was also the place I proposed just this past New Years Eve.
The wedding ceremony will begin at 5:30pm, with cocktails, dinner and dancing to immediately follow.

In today's day an age, with gas prices being what they are, we realize that coming from "out-of-town" doesn't always mean, "out-of-state". So for those of you traveling a great distance, whether that be by plane from Florida or Illinois, or by car from Inglewood, Monterey Park or even Santa Ana, just to celebrate with us on our big day, here are a few hotels that are close to the wedding venue.
We have a block of rooms reserved at this location for 9/26 & 9/27 @ rate of $95 + tax/fees per night. Reservations need to be made by 9/12.

GIFT REGISTRY
What we want most for our wedding is our loved ones to have a good time. Your presence is our present. However, we have options for tangible gifts as is the custom. We have had lots of fun when we registered at Crate and Barrel and Amazon. There is also the option to contribute to our honeymoon via Paypal. Thank you.
