From first date to forever… 🫎💙

There’s something extra special about being part of your story from the very beginning. Drew & Courtney had their first date at Blue Moose back in May of 2023… and just a few years later, they said “I do” in the very same place.
We’re so honored they chose to celebrate their wedding day with us on August 15th, surrounded by the same booth, the same memories, and now—an entirely new chapter.

Thank you, Drew & Courtney, for trusting us with such a meaningful moment in your lives. Stories like yours are exactly why we do what we do.

Here’s to love, memories, and the moments that bring us full circle. 🥂

Introducing Monty Moose!!!🫎💙

Thank you to everyone who participated and shared so many creative name ideas across all platforms—we loved seeing them all!

A special shoutout to Kenny, the creator of our moose. While the name didn’t make the final cut, Monty wouldn’t be here without him.

Stop in soon and say hi to Monty!
