If you will be in town on Saturday, October 5, please join us for welcome drinks and bites at Electric Cool-Aid, owned by two of our dear friends, Ben Schwartz and Angela DelBrocco. This bar is an outdoor bar in the bustling Shaw neighborhood of Northwest DC. Their specialty is frozen drinks, but they also offer canned beverages. Join us for some pre-wedding mingling and smiles! We do not recommend wearing stiletto heels to the welcome party, and recommend you bring a light jacket to stay warm. Vibe is casual.
