The Wedding Website of Laura Ann McCarthy and Tommy McCarthy
We’ve chosen to exchange our vows in an intimate, private ceremony on Friday, January 2nd, and we’re thrilled to celebrate with all of our loved ones at Our Wedding Reception on Saturday, January 3rd. We’ve planned other casual events around the reception so we’ll have plenty of time to share special moments and make memories with everyone.

Our Wedding Reception

4:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Uncle Jessie's Honkytonk
1622 Glenwood Ave, Raleigh, NC 27608

Cocktail attire requested. Dancing shoes required! Ladies: Mini or midi dresses, elegant separates, or elevated jumpsuits. Men: Slacks with a collared shirt and blazer (no jeans, please). And yes—cowboy boots are more than welcome.

We planned our reception to be everything we love most—and we can’t wait to celebrate and share that with you! This won’t follow the traditional reception format of a seated dinner followed by dancing; instead, enjoy heavy hors d’oeuvres and grazing stations throughout the evening as you mingle, laugh, and most importantly, dance! We’ll have live music, along with all the classic reception traditions. This is a 21+ venue, so while children are invited and welcome to join in the fun, they’ll need to head home before 9 PM. After our reception, the venue opens to the public and the band keeps playing—so stick around and keep the party going even after the open bar closes, until it’s time to migrate to the after-party for those who want to join. Seating will be mostly at bar stools, so while cocktail attire is requested, be sure to wear comfortable shoes and get ready to boogie.

The Party after The Party

11:00 pm

Following our reception, there will be an informal (adults only) after-party for anyone who wants to keep the celebration going. Lucky B's is where we officially met, so we’re excited to bring it full circle and share that special place with the people we love most. Enjoy pub games, cheap drinks, and of course, a jukebox! We’re also planning to have pizza delivered, so please RSVP if you think you’ll be joining the fun.

Sunday Football & Goodbyes

11:30 am

Bowstring Pizza and Brewyard
1930 Wake Forest Rd, Raleigh, NC 27608

Join us for a casual football-watching hangout on the last Sunday of the NFL regular season before we head off on our honeymoon! We’ve reserved the covered, heated patio at one of our favorite spots, so come by anytime and stay as long as you like. Drinks and food will be available for purchase. We’d love to see you there!
