Ceremony and Party!!!

3:00 pm - 8:00 pm

It's the New Hampshire woods in May, so it gets chilly at night! We will provide bug spray and citronella candles.

We will have drinks and apps and then a buffet-style dinner and dessert around 6pm! There will be three dinner options, including gluten-free, vegetarian and kid-friendly. We will have music, dancing, and socializing as long as folks can last, and maybe a few speeches mixed in there as well.

Beach Hangout

11:00 am - 2:00 pm

If weather permits, folks are welcome back to the cabin Monday morning to hang out and swim.

BYOF. Bring your own food and drinks, but we will supply lake, beach, beach toys, and lawn games.

FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Dressy, but tie-optional. Something fancier than khakis, but full suit and tie not required. For the ladies, don't wear heels because the whole area for the wedding is sand / grass and you will sink like quick sand :)

Question

What is the temperature in Canaan at that time of year?

Answer

High 60's or low 70's. It gets quite chilly at night, so bring layers, sweaters, jackets, or shawls.

Question

What should we do Monday morning if we are staying the night after the wedding?

Answer

You are welcome back to the Cabin (wedding ceremony site) to hang on the beach and play in the water, if weather permits.

Question

When should we go home?

Answer

Depending on your hotel reservations anytime after 8 or 9pm the night of the wedding if you live close enough or stay the night nearby and go home Monday. It is a long weekend, so Monday afternoon back to the city might be more traffic than normal.

Question

What if I have dietary restrictions?

Answer

Feel free to message Liza or Taro directly to make sure we can get the right food, but most of the RSVPs should include space for dietary restriction descriptions or options.
