Our Story
We met 22 years ago in third grade in Northern Virginia, where Daniel grew up and Megan’s family had just relocated from the UK. After spending our formative childhood years in the same hometown, we fell in love before heading off to college, spending memorable weekends visiting each other at the University of South Carolina (Go Cocks!) and the University of Delaware (Roll Hens!). In our early 20s, we lovingly parted ways and moved to different cities.
Life brought us back together four years later, after we both grew tired of pretending we weren’t soulmates. Since then, we have lived together in Baltimore and now in London, two cities we fiercely love sharing with visitors. Getting married in the beautiful English countryside with our dearest friends and family is a dream come true, more than two decades in the making. Thank you for being part of our journey.

Join us in the Cotswolds!
The Cotswolds, with it's rolling hills, honey-colored stone cottages, and timeless villages, is a region steeped in history that reflects centuries of English tradition and craftsmanship. Its charm lies in the perfect blend of natural beauty and preserved heritage, making it one of the most enchanting and picturesque areas in all of England.
Travel & Accommodation
The Slaughters Manor House
Wedding Venue
The Slaughters Manor House, a stunning 17th-century English manor set within five acres of beautiful landscaped gardens, wasn’t even on our original list of venues. But Meg’s parents, Eamonn and Liane, had a feeling it might be special having visited the inn across the lane several times over the years, and they were right! The moment we arrived, we all immediately fell in love with the charm of the house, the warmth of the team, and the serene beauty of the grounds. We knew right then it was the perfect place to celebrate our families coming together.
