Act I

A Ride to
the Airport

Their story started somewhere unlikely — a ride to the airport before Adam left for the Netherlands. A family friend, between basketball talk and traffic, asked if he was single, then mentioned someone: a Jewish doctor, a Canadian, and — most importantly — a Packers fan.

"You had me at Green Bay Packers fan."

Packers at Ford Field

Their first date was at a bourbon bar, over a competitive game of Battleship. Care to take a shot?

Act II

The Most Important
Presentation of His Career

Erica had one request — a blessing, not permission. So Adam invited Bethe and Sheldon to a "practice" work presentation. Seven slides later — scouting reports, pie charts, a "Free Agent Fiancé Prospect" report card and all — it was very much not practice.

They said yes. Obviously.

Act III

A Rooftop &
a Hidden Ring

Adam proposed on the rooftop of The Whiskey Factory — the same place they'll marry. He'd had a book custom-made: blank pages with a hollow carved into them to cradle the ring, and a cover that told their whole story in a single drawing. Saying yes was the easiest thing she's ever done.

The question, on the rooftop

And that cover? It's below.

Details

A quick word on cocktail attire: think a suit and tie or a sport coat, a cocktail dress, or a dressy jumpsuit — polished but comfortable enough to dance in. The venue is an old whiskey distillery, so heels and thin soles may fight the floors a little. Please, no jeans or sneakers — and skip long floor-length gowns, those are for us. When in doubt, dress it up.
