We invited you to celebrate our wedding
Born in Bellevue but not your typical Bellevue girl. She also worked on a farm & hauled wood, rides motorcycles, and plays bass guitar.
Born in Germany, moved to US in 2010 for work, and fell in love with the pacific northwest. Well, with Kristina too but that took a few more years.
If you're like us, you might wonder how we got here. Strap in, it's a wild ride.
We met on the boat of a common friend. We enjoyed the sun, water, and a cringey portion of dad jokes. Hey, in Immo's defense: Kristina started with it.
It all started innocently by just watching a British show 'Catastrophe'. Unlike Immo's date this was very much not a catastrophe. And soon after we realized we liked each other more than we thought.
For Kristina's birthday, Immo and Kristina went on their first motorcycle ride together. Or maybe that was really a present for Immo? 🤔
Unfortunately, Immo's mum was on her last legs due to a decade long fight with cancer. We decided to go together. While it wasn't exactly a vacation, Immo is incredibly thankful that his mum got to meet Kristina. And she very much approved of her.
We waited a while before we told the kids because we needed to be sure that we could be a family. Our kids went through many changes over the last years. Thankfully they liked the idea very much: not only did they like each other, they also liked their future step parents. We can neither confirm nor deny that ice cream bribes were involved.
Immo finally got his act together and proposed to Kristina. In the spirit of doing things differently, he did it during a camping trip with the kids while kneeling in a rocky riverbed. Hey, we're living in the pacific northwest. Sadly, Immo failed to secure sponsorship by REI.
