5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
The ceremony will take place outdoors — a mix of pavement and grass — so choose your shoes wisely.
Come early, wander the grounds, find your seat, and take it all in. Please arrive by 5:00 PM — the ceremony begins promptly at 5:30. ✨ Afterward, we’ll share a slice of celebratory cake and a sparkling toast — a little joy and sparkle before the real party begins. ✨
7:00 pm
After cake and a toast under the trees, we’ll head into Center City for round two — about a 15-minute drive from The Woodlands. We encourage guests to embrace city life and take public transit or rideshare to and between locations. Limited parking is available inside The Woodlands near the Hamilton Mansion. Public Transit: The Woodlands sits across from the 40th Street Trolley Portal and near the University City Regional Rail Station — both connect easily to Center City. A quick note before the party: Our reception will feature cocktails and plenty of hors d’oeuvres, but no formal dinner. If you’d like a meal between the ceremony and reception, this is a great time to grab something substantial before joining us underground at Elbow Lane.
8:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Please join us downstairs at Elbow Lane, the speakeasy beneath Harp & Crown, for the real party. Think cocktails, bowling (yes, actual bowling), delicious snacks, and general good-times shenanigans. No sit-down dinner, no assigned seats—just vibes, vintage flair, and a whole lot of love. Come festive, and come ready to party.
