Invitation to come.
Where
Where do an Australian and a Texan who fell in love in New York City get married?
We are blessed to have so many special people in our lives from multiple treasured homes. Having so many of you in one place will be a dream come true.
San Miguel de Allende is a befitting set for that dream. For the unfamiliar, it is a colorful, walkable, cobblestoned town in the mountains of Mexico. It is small and local enough that many Americans haven’t heard of it, but has enough tourism and expat community that you’ll be able to get by if you are not Spanish speaking. It is known for its colonial and baroque architecture, its lovely, lavish villas, and its magical ability to leave an imprint on visitors forever.
We will be in town from Thursday to Sunday and will be providing a light itinerary with plenty of room for leisure. We hope you will be able to make it for a few days of celebration and elation.

Suggestions for Australian Travelers
Your fastest route is the Sydney to Dallas route available via Qantas.
If you are looking to break your trip up, consider spending a few days in California. You can fly from Sydney to Los Angeles or San Francisco, and fly to Dallas or Houston in less than four hours.
If you are looking to add another Mexican destination to your trip, most major cities in the US fly directly to Mexico City. The Mexico City airport is about three and a half hours from San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and rental cars, group shuttles and private drivers are all available. Guadalajara (GDL) and Puerto Vallarta (PVR) are other great options and are a short, direct flight from San Miguel.
If Texas appeals as a second destination, consider Aaron’s hometown, Austin. It’s a three hour drive from Houston and a four hour drive from Dallas, and is far more interesting and enjoyable than both.
