Shannon and Kari married at The Vaughn in Austin, Texas, after getting engaged on a rooftop in Venice, Italy. Their ceremony highlighted the joining of their lives together, the reasons why they were promising themselves to each other, and their handwritten vows. Kari is an author and a founding member of Typewriter Rodeo, so the couple brought one of her vintage typewriters to the venue for guests to type notes to them.

We truly wanted the night to be a celebration, so it was light on ritual and heavy on laughter, eating, drinking, dancing and having fun. —Shannon Scott, marrier
