The reception will in a covered but open-air setting.
We kindly ask that anyone feeling unwell on our wedding day remain home, no matter how last minute it is. All guests are encouraged to take an at-home Covid test the morning of the wedding and stay home if positive. We appreciate guests using caution to protect everyone’s health.
