All because two people loved craft beer…

Ashley started working at Last Wave Brewing in spring of 2022. Evan was hired as the manager in summer of 2022. They were just coworkers, and eventually he moved on, traveled the world, and started working at Tall Oaks Brewing where Ashley went to visit with friends on their opening day, New Year’s Eve 2023. He saw her again, and the rest is history.

FAQs

Question

Where can I park?

Answer

There is street parking available throughout the town of Belmar. Parking directly on the ocean side of Ocean Avenue will require paying at a pay station. Parking on the street side or anywhere off of Ocean Avenue is free. Please be sure to arrive with plenty of time to find a spot. Ride sharing or Uber/Lyft is recommended.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Formal attire is requested. Suits (not tuxedos) and dresses. No shorts please. The ceremony will take place on the pier, so spike heels are probably not in your best interest. Feel free to bring your flip flops for the dance floor!
