We love your kids—we really do. But we want our wedding to be your night off! We apologize for any inconvenience but are hopeful you'll have just as good of time, if not better, without your little ones.
If your invitation says “and Guest,” then yes, if not, we would prefer if it was just you. Don't worry - you'll almost certainly know at least one person (besides us) at the wedding. We've been friends a long time and by this point, at the very least, you'll know my mom :)
Everything will be on the Marriott Resort premises. Out of an abundance of caution given the Delta Variant, BOTH The ceremony and reception will be OUTSIDE at the OCEANFRONT TERRACE. It is expected to be warm in late September, so dress accordingly.
Since it will be outside, please dress comfortably. Cocktail preferred. But please, we want you to feel comfortable, so if those heels are too high or that top button is too tight, let it all hang loose. We just want YOU PRESENT no matter what you wear.
I was bestowed my gorgeous wedding gown by my Best Friend Luanda (the original Lulu), who will not be present in physical form. This dress has a long history yet has never been worn. It's the dress I would have wanted for myself but never would have gotten due to my humility. It's formal and elegant, and as I like to call it, my "Princess Gown". So again, Lu is making sure she has her best friend influence on my big day. And of course Blake is rising to the occasion. He looks damn good in a tuxedo! Plus, we've waited a long damn time for this - It's going to be official and special in every way. Please don't feel you have to dress formal. We want you to be comfortable and bask in the joy and fun of the celebration.
