While we adore the little ones in our lives, our reception will be an adults-only celebration. We hope this offers you the chance to enjoy an evening to yourselves.
Please plan to arrive by 6:00 p.m. Cocktails will be served upon arrival, with heavy hors d'oeuvres following shortly thereafter. We kindly ask that guests be seated no later than 6:30 p.m. so we may begin the evening together.
The dress code is elevated cocktail. We invite you to lean into the elegance of the evening—think refined silhouettes, polished details, and pieces that make you feel entirely at your best.
Before celebrating with loved ones, Lace and Cedric will exchange vows in a private ceremony. The reception is where we will gather with family and friends to celebrate, and we cannot wait to raise a glass with you.
National Harbor offers several convenient parking options, including covered garages, surface lots, and metered street parking. We recommend Fleet Garage (at the corner of Fleet Street and Potomac Passage) or Mariner Garage (at the corner of Waterfront Street and Mariner Passage), both a short walk from the Flight Deck. Please see our Travel page for full details.
Because of the intimate nature of our celebration, we are only able to accommodate the guests formally named on your invitation. We hope you understand, and we cannot wait to share the evening with you.
We have curated a short list of nearby hotels on our Travel page, including room blocks at the AC Hotel by Marriott and Hyatt Place National Harbor. All are within walking distance of the venue, and we encourage early booking to secure your preferred option.
Kindly respond through the RSVP page on this website by June 11, 2026. Please include any dietary preferences or accommodations we should know about so we can make your evening seamless.
We will not have a registry. Your presence at our reception is the only gift we could ask for, and we are so looking forward to celebrating with you.
