12:00 pm - 3:00 pm
If you're near Mount Dora, checkout the historic downtown area. All sorts of shops and places to eat, a playground, nature trail and lighthouse within walking distance. We'll be hanging around one of my favorite spots (can you say, mimosas?) for most of the day, so come say hello!
6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
If you received a Rehearsal Dinner invitation, please join us at Cafe Gianni's top floor for beer and wine, apps, and some delicious Italian. The food options will be added as soon as we have the final details. If you didn't receive a Rehearsal Dinner invite, we'd still love to see you. We'll be downtown Mount Dora all day on Friday, both before and after dinner! Check out the 'Meet, Greet' section above and the Things to Do page for spots you're sure to find us.
4:30 pm - 5:30 pm
We've created as many pathways as possible to help you keep your balance and your shoes clean, but rethink the stilettos. Opt for some chunky heels, boots or boat shoes. Attire is semi-formal to black tie--so no shorts or jeans unless you can get in for free at Disney World.
Our property will have some signage out front so you know where to turn. We'll have attendants to direct you where to park. We encourage you to carpool if possible! To get to the ceremony area, just walk through our front door! There will be a bar in the living room with all sorts of beverages to hold you over before the ceremony begins. You'll then follow the lit path past the reception tent, all the way to the back of the property. There will be a mix of chairs and furniture and you can sit where you like! As always, save the front rows for grammies and great aunties (both the older and really cool ones). If you're not sure you can make the walk to the back of the property, just inform the parking attendant and you'll get VIP transportation to the back! The Ceremony starts promptly at 5 PM.
5:30 pm - 10:00 pm
After the Ceremony, enjoy happy hour on the lawn. Hang in the tent or lounge area & play some yard games. We'll have a charcuterie table + app service includes Chicken and Waffle Skewers, Caribbean Crab Cakes, and Grilled Cheese and Tomato Bisque Shooters. There's a full bar & non-alcoholic drinks + you're welcome to bring something special (we ask that you let the bartender serve it). Bringing cigars? Don't burn down our lawn. We are attorneys & we will find you (love you, mean it!). Time for the best part of the evening, Dinner! Check out the Things to Do page to make your entree selection. Entrees are served individually to you; sides & salads sit family style at the table. If you're bringing kids, we'll have a nanny service on-site + a tent with activities and Disney movies. To help us get funky, check out the Things to Do tab to submit three songs you want to hear. If we pick one, you MUST dance with us!
10:00 pm
The DJ leaves at 10 PM but the party don't stop! We recommend adult-only if you stick around. But there will be bon fires, a french fry food truck, and did we mention a hot chocolate bar? We'll continue to play music, hang out, and enjoy all the french fries. This is also a BYOT (Bring Your Own Tent!) event. You're welcome to camp out for the evening under the stars and wait for the wildlife to make an appearance. Checkout our FAQ page for more information about the property if you're interested!
