11:00 am - 3:00 pm
Join the bride and groom for a daytime lake hang at Jess's family home and dock. We have rented pontoons for those who want to go out on the water, or you can post up on the docks/lawns at Jess's house! We'll have a full bar, cookout lunch provided (hot dogs, brats, burgers, and veggie burgers) along with picnic-style sides. We'll have tunes pumping! Plan to wear very casual lake/beach clothes and a bathing suit if you want a dip. We will have limited places to change. If you plan to swim please BYO towel! Standard dock warning: your shoes will get wet! Plan for shoes that are beach/water friendly, like flip flops, Birks, Tevas, etc (or you can stay on the grass). Our part of the lake does not have a beach, all entry is from a dock or wading in. Jess is likely wearing a bathing suit and cover-up/shorts, and Ted is wearing a cabana suit (!). Please plan for your own sun protection!
6:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Join us under the open-air pavilion at the Upper Course at Peak'n Peek for a casual dinner of apps, pizza, and salad, followed by toasts and dancing (and some late night bites)! CLE Rock Bar will be playing rock jams all night so come with requests! This event is outdoors, and attire is festive casual. For clarity, this event is at a venue at Peak'n Peek, where many of our guests are staying. It's at the top of the ski mountain/golf course, while the Inn is at the bottom. For guests staying at the Inn, we have a shuttle reserved for the entire event shuttling guests from the bottom to the top and back (approx a 10 min from the bottom to the top). For guests staying in condo rentals at the Peak, it should be a short walk to Woods & Wedges. For guests driving, there is ample parking at the venue.
3:15 pm - 3:45 pm
Please allot for time to get to the ceremony if you are using transportation provided by Jess & Ted. We will provide more details closer to the date about specific pick-up times and locations.
4:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Ceremony, dinner, reception, and dancing are all at Pine Junction. Ceremony will start at 4p promptly. Please arrive to the venue by 3:45p. No need to pick a side - please sit wherever is comfortable for you! Please note the ceremony is uncovered and if it’s sunny, is in direct sunlight. Lots of people have inquired about attire - think festive garden party. Ted won't be wearing a tie! The ceremony will be on grass but the rest will be on pavement.
9:30 pm - 10:30 pm
School bus shuttles will return guests to their homes or to the after-party at French Creek Tavern.
Sat, Jun 29, 2024, 10:00 pm - Sun, Jun 30, 2024, 1:00 am
Jess and her family grew up going to French Creek, a *perfect bar and restaurant*. Join us for buckets of beers and late night bites at the best dive bar. The party will go until the last person drops, and longtime Brown family friend and FCT owner Bridget has set up a DJ and karaoke for us. Yes, this weekend is a marathon. We'll have a shuttle bus to return all party-goers to their homes. A silly but practical advisement: please remember the address of your VRBO and AirBNB so that you can direct the driver directly to your home. This is especially true for those staying in rental houses at The Peak, which all look the same!
