3:15 pm
We will be meeting outside of The Bowery Hotel at 3:15pm in order to be driven up to Central Park for the ceremony. The ceremony spot is less than 5 minute walk from the drop-off at Central Park, and the ceremony will begin at 4:00pm. NOTE: For our New York City friends, if you prefer to meet at Gapstow Bridge and not take the bus from The Bowery Hotel, please let us know so we can plan accordingly. I.E RSVP here accordingly!
4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Formal Attire.
If you are arriving to the ceremony location via bus, Cat’s parents will guide the way to the exact ceremony location. If you are driving, parking on around 5th Ave and 60th street would be ideal, and you can put Gapstow Bridge into Google Maps on your phone for walking directions. Please note there will be some walking (about 5 minutes before and after ceremony), and chairs are not allowed in the park, so we will be standing for the duration of the ceremony (about 25 minutes). Please also be aware we will spend time following the ceremony for family pictures, so I would be mindful of your shoes! Smaller heeled sandals or chunky heels would be advised. Following the ceremony we will walk to the bus and all drive to the dinner reception together unless you drove, and we look forward to meeting you at the Wythe!
6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Upon arriving to the Wythe, you can check in with the host for the Clawson-Mellinger wedding. Starting at 6pm there will be canapes and a cocktail hour, followed by a family style dinner (we will have vegetarian + fish + meat options). Cake, cocktails and of course, light dancing will follow! Please note following the reception we will be going to Tailgate for an after party. There will not be transportation provided from the reception to the hotel, as we hope we can all go to the after party together!
10:00 pm
Our close friends Taylor and Jarrod own TailGate! Located right across the street from the Wythe, there's no excuse not to come ;) There will be drinks, dancing, and most importantly, a good time.
