Schedule

Chinese Secret Garden Party

5:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Garden Attire: Wear sundresses, floral prints, suits in lighter hues, and fun hats and fascinators.

Join us for a secret garden party at the Sun Yat Sen Garden, a little oasis in the middle of the metropolis. A walled Chinese garden tucked into the heart of Chinatown, explore the blooms, soak in the spring, and wander between Filipino snack stations (and a rolling sorbetes cart) from Hapag, one of our favorite local restaurants. Classical Chinese music played by a young prodigy will float through the garden, while fun activities and festivities overflow. The garden is a historical work of art and features pebble mosaic floors in many of the courtyards, and the ground may be wet, so please be mindful of footwear choices. Dress for the weather, we recommend layers!

Ceremony in the Garden

4:15 pm - 5:30 pm

Semi-Formal

A Jewish wedding ceremony under the chuppah at the Classical Chinese Garden. Please arrive promptly. Men are requested to wear kippot (which will be provided) but you are also invited to bring your own if you have one. As with the welcome party on Saturday, the ground is not all flat and may be damp, please be mindful of your footwear and bring layers. The ceremony will be inside or outside (weather-dependent).
