This event is semi-formal: Light colored suits with jackets and dress shoes, full length afternoon gowns, tea dresses, dressy jumpsuits, fun hats and fascinators are welcome. It is requested that guests do not wear white to give the bride her day to shine. Heels are not recommended. The meadow is wild and may be uneven and soft from rain. Wedges may be okay. Flats or sandals are recommended.
We look forward to celebrating our union with you! Here are some things to know upon arrival: Once you get to the property please drive slowly to keep the dust from spreading to our ceremony site, which is near the driveway. Please arrive on the property and have your car parked by 12:30pm. Gates will be closed promptly at 12:45 and no cars will have access to the property until after the ceremony. If you are running late, you may park outside of the gate and walk to the ceremony grounds. Please refrain from interrupting the vows.
2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
