We're getting hitched!

Please celebrate with us for a fun and relaxing weekend at Sugarloaf Ski Resort in Carrabassett Valley, Maine from Friday, April 11th to Sunday, April 13th. We will ski, snowboard, enjoy a catered dinner, spend time with close family/friends, and celebrate the next chapter of Max and Erica.

Running parallel to our celebration is the annual Sugarloaf Reggae Festival . Good vibes, live music, and food trucks will be in full effect. Sugarloaf village restaurants and shops will also be operating as usual. Max and Erica recommend D'Ellies Bakery & Deli for breakfast/lunch, The Bag or The Rack for dinner, and Eighty8 Donuts for a sweet treat.

Our Story

Max and Erica met at the University of Maine in 2018. Max was studying computer science and Erica was studying economics and math. They met through Tinder when Max asked to take Erica up for an airplane ride. Erica said no, telling Max her mother told her not to get into a stranger's airplane. Instead, they ran an errand together, then watched The Office (US). They hit it off immediately, finding common interests in snowboarding, life experiences, ambition, and humor. Today, they live on a small farm with their dog, cats, and horses. Their love for one another grows stronger each day.
