Game Night (Bachelorette ish but not) Only Specific Invitees

3:00 pm

THIS EVENT IS ONLY FOR THE WOMEN. Wear comfortable clothes. You can wear pajamas or a funny onesie pajama if you want. Depending on pool opening or hot tub bring a swimsuit and towel.

Whoever wants to bring any fun games or food of any kind that would be amazing. We could have multiple games going on. Hopefully great weather so we can hang outside. BYOB. I just want a fun game night with friends and family, that can also be a more comfortable setting for people to meet before the wedding. If anyone is allergic to cats, I'm sorry we have 2. But they are adorable for whoever isn't allergic lol. Also, if anyone has food allergies please let me know ahead of time. DO NOT bring Seafood of any kind please and thank you, I'm pretty sure I would want to breathe all night. See you all soon! I can't wait! 🩵

Getting Ready Photos

11:00 am - 2:30 pm

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Newton Sparta by IHG
8 North Park Drive, Newton, NJ 07860

We will be getting ready, getting dressed, getting makeup and hair done. Photographer will be arriving at 130pm. My makeup and hair need to be complete before the arrival of the Photographer, as well as Mothers and MOH hopefully..

Bring everything you need to get ready for the wedding or arrive ready, whatever is easiest. I would like a majority of you in the photos please. I will have this room rented for the 25th and 26th. If anyone needs to stay either night please let me know. If you are staying elsewhere but want your things there you can drop them off to me prior. The times are approximate for arrival for hair and makup. I will adjust that more soon. The definite time for photographer arriving is 130pm. That should take approximately an hour and then we will head to our house for the family photos prior to the ceremony. If you could at least make it for when the photographer is there so we can complete our photos.

Wedding Party and Immediate Family Photos

1:30 pm - 3:45 pm

While the bride, mothers, bridesmaids/maid of honor, etc will be at the hotel room for getting ready/photos everyone else will meet at the house.

Please meet at the house at 130pm dressed, or bring your things with you to get dressed there. We are going to take multiple versions of pictures using the outside of our home. My photographer will start at 2pm and she will have a list of specific photos and we will need to leave by 345pm to go to Legion for the Ceremony. If you want anything included in the photos bring those with you as well. If you need anything please let us know ahead of time.

Ceremony

4:00 pm

American Legion Post 157: 325 US-206
325 US-206, Branchville, NJ 07826

Semi-formal to Formal Attire. We want you to look amazing but be comfortable as well. Inside event with a deck outside. No seating arrangement, excluding the table closest to the front/arch for the Ceremony. Please DO NOT park in the spot by the double doors to the far right so the DJ can unload/load his equipment easier.

Parking is not the best at the Legion so try to carpool/be dropped off. Please arrive early and take any seat excluding the table closest (which will be labeled), as that will be reserved. We welcome pictures/videos as long as you be sure to not block the Photographer/send using QR code. For the young/able-bodied guests, try to park in the barber shop lot further away so the people who need a closer spot don't need to walk so far. There is a CASH ONLY bar and an ATM, it will be an OPEN BAR from the end of the ceremony until 7PM. If you have a particular drink that you enjoy that is out of the norm, ask either of us ahead of time (Ex: Milk is not an ingredient they have). There is a deck off of the bar you are allowed to use to smoke. Marijuana smoking is NOT permitted on the deck and if you do so you'll be asked to leave. Please also leave your political views or argumentative conversation at home, this is not the time nor the place for it and you will be asked to leave.

Reception (Immediately following the Ceremony)

5:00 pm

American Legion Post 157: 325 US-206
325 US-206, Branchville, NJ 07826

We would like for everyone to remain in their Semi-formal/ Formal attire due to the photos. If you need to change into casual attire, please just keep it decent for the pictures. Thank you :)

Once the ceremony ends, we will rearrange a few things and the reception begins! There will be buffet style catering so you can enjoy that whenever you please and if anyone has allergies, please let us know. Due to allergies, I am sorry to say there will not be any type of seafood so I can breathe. There will be a DJ and a dance floor with a wide variety of songs so just be prepared you may hear songs you don't enjoy but others do. By the main door there are a men's and women's restroom. The photographer will be there until 730pm. Do not treat anyone with disrespect at all or you will be told to leave, this is a place we frequent, and all of our vendors are actual longtime friends of ours. Please be cautious with your drinking and if you need a ride, we can arrange that. Do not drive drunk from our event, we do not want anything bad to happen to anyone. If you have any concerns or questions just reach out to the bride or groom.
