Thanks!
Thanks to everyone for coming to our wedding this weekend. We had a blast and hope you did, too.
We’re off to Palm Springs for the honeymoon road trip. We’ll post wedding photos when we return.
Lots of love,
Lex & Dan
Here is one of our favorite photos from The Wedding. There are a lot more over on Dan’s Flickr page.

Marriage license: check!
We’ve posted our registry over on the wedding site. We are registered at Crate & Barrel, but as we live in a very small studio apartment and can’t take on too much new “stuff,” we’ve also added a list of some of our favorite things which friends and family can donate to (via Paypal)—like groceries, our dream sofa, and our vacation fund. In return we’ll send you a photo of us enjoying that particular favorite thing.
Thanks again for your love and support as we plan our wedding. It means the world to us.
Invites are in!
We’ve updated the Lodging page of our wedding site with new info. Guests can now book directly into our wedding block at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis through this link, or you can call Mary Truffa at the Marquis and book through her (just make sure you say that you’re part of the Leifheit/McKinley Wedding Block). Her number is (415) 896-1600, ext. 8130.
For all of you who are staying longer than just Friday & Saturday (and are planning on staying at the Marquis), please contact Dan so he can make arrangements to get you the discounted rate for your whole stay.
Last year, shortly after Dan moved to San Francisco, my cousin Gareth married his (now wife) Elizabeth back in New York. And Mike Farino made a video of the day, with music by Alexi Murdoch, that is so perfect and beautiful I had to share.

Hey folks, due to popular demand, we’re looking into getting a hotel in San Francisco to offer a group rate for our wedding guests. We’re still hoping that the Marriott Union Square will work out, but please hold off on making any travel arrangements until we’ve reached an agreement. We should have it all figured out in a couple weeks.
Lots of love,
Lex & Dan
