6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
There is no specific dress code for this event
There will be a full meal for everyone. This will be buffet style, so there will be food for people who arrive a little later as well.
Fri, Aug 23, 2024, 3:30 pm - Sat, Aug 24, 2024, 12:00 am
The dress code is Summer Formal/Garden Party (suits and bright ties; colorful summer dresses). If it's 85F (30C for our British guests!), feel free to leave the ties in the room! This will primarily be an outdoor celebration so ladies choose your shoes wisely and stilettos not recommended!
The ceremony will begin at 4:00pm. We would ask guests to arrive by 3:30pm, so we can all be seated when Jess arrives. After cocktail hour, dinner and dancing to our band, carriages/closing time will be at midnight.
12:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Everything on Saturday is completely optional! But for those who would like to join, Stephen & Jess will be hosting a 2-3 mile hike near the venue, to share our love for hiking with you! We'll be starting from Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 12pm - please plan to arrive for 11:30am as parking can take a while. We have then reserved an area at Arrowood Farms Brewery (connected to Stonehill's by a 1/4 mile walking trail, so you can park at the venue) from 4pm. In the event of bad weather, we'll skip the hike and head straight to the booze.
7:30 pm - 10:30 pm
Casual dress code for this. No need to change out of hiking gear for those doing the afternoon activities unless you'd prefer to (although Jess has told Stephen she would prefer if he changed into clean clothes)
We'll be wrapping up with the weekend with a relaxed dinner outside at Stonehill's. We'll have pizza and drinks for everyone. As well as fire pits, outdoor games etc
