During the sacred ceremonial hour, guests will not be served refreshments yet and encouraged to partake in the speech's part of the ceremony if you have something special to add about Jade and your relationship with her.

Dinner time and enjoy togetherness! And above all...have FUN!!

This is for you! During the evening, Jade will be pulled in many different directions. Please know she will be visiting each and every table during the cocktail hour to thank each guest personally and pose for table picture, so please grab your cocktails and head straight back to you table not to miss her. This will be the ultimate highlight of her night. We ask for your patience from you, as she will be following instructions, and your table may not be next in line, but nonetheless in line.
