LASSIEZ LE BON TEMPS ROULER
It all started one afternoon while sharing a pitcher of M43 at Graydons Crossing where we had met while working together. We had no clue what we were getting ourselves into, but we were willing to let the good times roll. After many late nights, LOLAs, and walks through Highland park, we learned this love would not fade away. On my 28th birthday I said “YES!” to the love of my life and on our 4 year anniversary we’ll be getting hitched. Welcome to our official wedding website, we are so excited to celebrate this special day with y’all!
CEREMONY & RECEPTION
We have decided to have a small and intimate ceremony on Monday the 21st of June at the iconic Blue Bridge with only our parents, Jason Boumia as the officiant, and Sam Waite playing the harp attending. We know its not the same, but we would still like to give you a glimpse into our special day by having a ceremony video loop produced by Brandon Emerson playing at the reception. The reception will be held on Saturday the 26th of June at the Cooley residence where we will have all the delicious munchies, BBQ and libations your heart desires!
RECEPTION
We are celebrating by having a back yard reception at the Cooley residence. Keeping the theme of doing things a little out of the ordinary, rather than a sit down dinner there will be a an array of muchies and desserts as well as BBQ from Two Scotts BBQ to eat at your leisure while you enjoy the libations of your choice listening to the sounds of the Benzing and Graves Collective. For those of you out of towners we have a room block at the Amway Grand Hotel . Click on the link or call (616)-774-2000 to make your reservations! Make sure to mention the “Cooley- Drew Wedding Block” to get the discounted rate of $139 for a standard room. P.S. There is also a discounted parking fee of $32. There will be no onsite parking. Instead we will have a shuttle bus service from the Lowell High School football stadium @ 1700 Vergennes St. SE Lowell, MI 4933. The first shuttle will pick people up at 5:45 pm and then both shuttles will run on 15 minute intervals until the last shuttle leaves the Cooley residence at 11:45 pm.

“Don’t let me show cruelty though I may make mistakes
Don’t let me show ugliness though I know I can hate
And don’t let me show evil though it might be all I take
Show me love
Don’t let me think weakly though I know that I can break
Keep me away from apathy while I am still awake
And don’t let me think too long of the one I’m bound to face
Show me love”
