If you are coming to the rehearsal dinner, you can give them to Emma and Eric then. If not, just bring them with you to the reception and the wedding planner, Lauren, will grab them from you. Thanks so much!
For the ceremony, the dress code is garden party attire—think light, airy fabrics, floral prints, and ankle or floor-length dresses. Alternatively, a suit or dress pants with a suit jacket would be ideal. Feel free to bring comfortable shoes to the reception since there will be lots of activities!
There will be dinner, drinks, dancing, an arcade, ping pong, pool, and pickleball courts— a little something for everyone! If you plan to get sporty, feel free to bring comfy shoes.

The name really says it all – a table full of cookies! But to the Western Pennsylvania region, it’s so much more! Traditionally, friends and family of the bride and groom bake cookies to contribute to the wedding. Quite regularly, hundreds of dozens of cookies end up on display during the big day, with a huge variety to choose from. Some popular cookies include pizzelles, nut cups, lady locks, fruit horns, biscotti and Italian wedding cookies – an anise-infused drop cookie with a simple, sugar glaze. To locals, the Wedding Cookie Table is such a strong tradition that the day just wouldn’t seem complete without it. Although the beginning of the Cookie Table is debatable, it is believed that this sweet sensation has been around since the Great Depression. It has been implied that the Cookie Table grew in popularity during this time because it offset the cost of purchasing a wedding cake, due in large part to the family and friends who baked for the wedding.
