Schedule

The Wedding Website of Rachael Richards and Garrison Ortiz
We’re so excited to welcome everyone to Rachael’s family farm — a place that has meant a lot to her family for years and felt like the perfect place for us to celebrate. Our hope is that the weekend feels relaxed and easy. Spend time outside, reconnect with friends, meet new ones, share some stories, maybe get a little competitive, and enjoy a few slow moments together in a place that’s special to us. Below is a general outline of the weekend so you know what to expect.

Friday, October 9, 2026

Welcome Party

5:00 pm - 9:00 pm

After a small, family-only rehearsal, we’ll kick off the weekend on the Richards Farm back patio. We’ll start the evening with dinner outside. Wine, beer, and soda will be out—if you prefer something else to drink, feel free to bring it. As the night goes on, we’ll light a fire and end the evening with backyard karaoke. Duets and group performances strongly encouraged 💃🏻🎤 Attire: Alfresco — think European fall dinner outdoors. Dresses, skirts, or nice pants are perfect. A jacket or layer is a good idea; mid-October evenings in Missouri are usually around 50–60°F. The setting is grassy in places, so maybe rethink stilettos.

Ceremony

5:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Our wedding colors are black, soft white, espresso brown, and touches of olive green but please wear whatever colors you love. The ceremony will be outdoors on grass, and early October evenings in Missouri are typically in the low–mid 60s, so a light layer is recommended. In the event of inclement weather, the ceremony will be held indoors at the reception hall.

Reception

7:00 pm - 11:00 pm
