Our Wedding

Erin and Braden met in Chicago while working together at Gather, where long days in the restaurant turned into late nights at the bar after work. What began as a friendship eventually became something more.-In 2021, they moved to Miami and began the next chapter of their life together. While their careers evolved, hospitality remained a shared foundation, shaping how they live, connect, and celebrate.-They share a love of great food, thoughtful wine, and the kind of experiences that bring people together. They have built not just a relationship, but a life filled with meaningful friendships and shared moments, and they are so excited to celebrate this next chapter with the people who mean the most to them.
