We currently have an agreement with our photographer for an ‘unplugged’ ceremony in which guests are discouraged from taking photos so they may be present with us. However, photos are not only welcome during the reception, they are encouraged! We have also purchased access to an app called Veri that will allow guests to upload their own photos and videos in real time via a mobile app. Please check this link for more information: http://in.veri.com/to/gwangwedding
We are very excited to be married but we’ve decided together to each keep our last names as they are.
Please check our 'Travel' section for more information. We currently have two hotel blocks at two different locations--the Hilton Double Tree in Columbia, MD and the Homewood Suites by Hilton Columbia/Laurel located in Laurel, MD.
There is ample parking located at the front of the wedding venue! We may suggest car pooling, however, to make things a little easier.
Cocktail attire is suggested. We also highly encourage vintage clothing (swing era) for our guests who love to indulge!
Yes, you can! Our DJ comes from the illustrious Dapper DJs and if you follow the link here: http://thedapperdjs.djintelligence.com/request/ and enter "christylawrence" as the group name and the password as "gwangwed" (without the quotes), you will be able to submit songs for the DJ to play during the reception. Enjoy!
Please refer to how your invitation is addressed. We have many friends and family and can only accommodate so many. Thank you for understanding.
On the day of our wedding, please reach out to our lovely coordinator, Kathy Monte of Vows Wedding and Events planning at (717) 919 -1900 or planningkathy@gmail.com with any questions. If it requires reaching one of us specifically, the message will be passed along!
A buffet style dinner will be served with several options for most palates. However, if you do follow a vegan diet, please email us at gwangwedding2018@gmail.com. Special arrangements will be made for you.
