A: Black-Tie Optional Tuxedos and floor-length gowns are encouraged for a more formal, elegant vibe — but they’re not required. Dark suits, cocktail dresses, and dressy attire are perfectly acceptable. We just want everyone to feel confident, polished, and ready to party! Just as a side note, the bridesmaids will be wearing navy blue satin dresses.
LBI National Golf & Resort 99 Golf View Drive Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey, 08087, USA Important Note: The venue name causes some confusion — this is not on Long Beach Island (LBI). Despite the name, LBI National Golf & Resort is located in Little Egg Harbor, NJ, just inland. Please double-check your GPS to make sure you arrive at the right spot! The hotel is on-site, so you’ll be just steps away from all the wedding events — no extra travel needed.
Yes! Weather permitting, the ceremony will take place outdoors on the grass, with the reception to follow at the same venue. Everything is conveniently located in one beautiful spot.
Please arrive by 4:45pm to get settled before the ceremony begins.
A note from the bride: You may notice that I’m keeping my last name—and I wanted to share why. This is a very personal decision for me. There are only a few people left in my family who still carry my last name, and it’s something I’ve always felt deeply connected to. It’s also the name my grandmother carried — someone who meant the world to me and is no longer with us. Keeping it is my way of honoring her and the legacy of the people who helped shape who I am. Lorenzo has been nothing but supportive of my decision. We both believe that marriage is about love, respect, and partnership — and this choice doesn’t change how committed we are to building a beautiful life together. While traditions can be beautiful, not all of them fit every story. This choice isn’t about rejecting love or commitment—it’s about honoring where I’ve come from and staying true to myself as I step into this new chapter with Lorenzo. Our marriage is about partnership, not erasure. So yes, the name stays—but the love, joy, and commitment we share are what truly matter most.
We kindly ask that only those listed on the invitation attend. We appreciate your understanding as we’ve worked hard to keep things intimate and meaningful.
We love your little ones, and while we wish we could celebrate with everyone, we are only able to accommodate the children specifically listed on the invitation. This decision was not made lightly — it’s simply due to space limitations, logistics, and our desire to create a relaxed atmosphere for all our guests (especially the parents!). We truly appreciate your understanding and support as we celebrate this special moment with the closest circle of people we can include.
We want everyone to enjoy their meal and feel comfortable! If you have any dietary restrictions or food allergies, please be sure to include that information under the reservation section of our wedding website. There will be a space provided where you can type in any special dietary needs. A vegetarian option will be available as part of the menu.
No worries — there’s a beautiful indoor backup plan in place for the ceremony. The ceremony is the only time guests will be completely outside. Whether it's sunny skies or a little drizzle, it’s going to be magical.
