Cory & Julia

We invite you to our destination celebration!

How We Came to Be

Cory and Julia’s story began in high school back in 2015—and over the past ten years, they’ve navigated college, graduations, career changes, cross-country moves, and the beautiful chaos of early adulthood together. Through every season, one constant has remained: their love for each other—and for travel.

This October marks a full decade of memories, growth, and laughter. To celebrate this special milestone, they’ll be officially signing their marriage papers in Miami, Florida—the same city where Cory and Julia got engaged.

Rather than planning a traditional wedding, they’ve chosen a celebration that reflects who they are: adventurous, go with the flow and value being surrounded by the people who matter most. There won’t be a formal ceremony or gift registry—just a kid-free, fun-filled group cruise designed to bring together friends and family for an unforgettable time at sea.

They invite you to join them aboard the Scarlet Lady, Virgin Voyages’ iconic adults-only cruise ship, for a destination celebration full of sunshine, shared stories, and meaningful moments. Your presence is the only gift they ask for—come raise a glass to ten years of love and the journey still ahead.
