The Guests and The Plans

When Becky and Justin decided to have this amazing destination wedding I don’t think they thought they would ever have as many people decide to join them as have! What a blessing and a testament to how loved they are! It’s important we identify all the players here- especially as many have the same names! That should make following the story interesting!!

Debbie Oliver- Brides Mom

Shirley Schoenlaub (Nana)- Brides Grandmother

Mike Oliver family (Mike, Michelle, Megan, Matt)- Brides Brother, Sister-in-law, niece and nephew

Grant- Friend of Brides nephew Matt

Its going to be interesting to keep track of all these stories! The first thing to understand is that everyone is arriving into Rome at different times, different days, and different airlines! Matt and Grant are in Europe now in Paris and will be coming to Rome on the 14th. Debbie, Tina and Jessica are also coming on the 14th. Those 5 as well as Andrew, Megan, and Ollie will be staying at an apartment a few blocks away from everyone else- across the street from the Colosseum. 

Current plan is that nearly everyone will meet at the group hotel on May 19 at 10:30 for a ride to the port. 

Welcome to the wedding blog. A few of us will be writing and posting photos so sit back and travel along! We will try to post every day but the wedding day may not get posted until the next as we intend to have a great time late into the night!
