Our Wedding

Christine and Madison first met thanks to a mutual friend, Jack Czerwinski, who played matchmaker and set them up on a blind date. What started as Sunday brunch at the Royal Palms on November 21st, 2021, turned into a long walk with Ruger and watching a Seahawks game. They haven't left each other's sides since.

The Blind Date

That winter, Madison invited Christine to join him on a ski trip to Sun Valley with one of his best friends, Marko Stankovic. This snowy adventure marked the beginning of what has become a yearly tradition. Their love for this spectacular mountain town continues to grow with each visit, so much so that they hope to one day call it home.

Transportation

Whether you're staying in Stanley or Sun Valley/ Ketchum, we highly recommend renting a car at the airport.
