Guests are welcome to the farm at their convenience between 2:30 PM and 3:30 PM. The ceremony will start promptly at 3:30 PM. The driveway has a gate, so guests may need to call Chris or Tina (or Jimmy Mark) upon arrival to open the gate. Guests are welcome to follow the gravel road up to the house and park in the driveway.
Ceremony
3:30 pm - 4:00 pm
1330 Perry Sims Road, Winder, GA 30680
Semiformal/cocktail attire. We are planning to hold the ceremony outdoors in the grass, so dress for the weather (typically mid 50s to 70s in October). Some light walking throughout the farm may be required, so high heels are not recommended (a ride will be available for guests if needed).
Cocktail hour and photos
4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
We invite you to join us from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM for cocktails, conversation, and light snacks, while we take photos with you around the farm. The farm will be open for you to wander around and meet the animals as well!
Dinner and Reception
6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Dinner will be served around 6:00 PM in the party room outside of the house. We will be catering a delicious spread of Asian and American food, buffet-style, with a wide variety of vegetarian and meat options that should please most people. If you have any specific dietary restrictions or requests, please be sure to indicate as such on your RSVP and we will be happy to accommodate you! The Atlanta Brass Cats will be providing live jazz/Motown music from 6PM-9PM, and they are open to taking song requests! We will have a music break and a fireworks show from 7PM-7:30PM. We invite you to stay and celebrate with us as late as you are comfortable.
