Welcome
All last summer we pressed flowers. Every walk ended with something tucked between the pages of the heaviest book we own, and by September it wouldn't close.
This is what we made with them. We're getting married in a meadow in August, with a long table in a greenhouse and nowhere to be the next morning. We would love for you to be there.

Pressed Memories
A few pages from the heavy book.
2019The farmers' marketWe both reached for the last bunch of sweet peas. Theo let go first. Maeve bought him a coffee to say sorry.
- 2020The first garden
Four tomato plants on a fire escape and a window box of pansies that somehow outlasted the winter.
- 2022The long drive north
Two weeks, one tent, and a field of cornflowers outside Burlington that made us pull over and stay the afternoon.
2024A dog named CloverShe digs up everything we plant and we forgive her every time.
2026The questionAsked on one knee in the poppies at the edge of the farm, about ten yards from where we'll say yes again.
