Night Before Pizza Party

Bring your swimsuits!
We will be kicking off the night before welcome party at the wedding venue (The Black Diamond Lodge)! Pizza and beer will be provided :) Bring your swimmies in case you want to hot tub! We had to make some adjustments to the schedule so the Hot Springs is sadly no longer part of the welcome event but we still encourage you all to work it into your weekend somehow :) PSA to The Wedding Party - we will quickly run through a brief rehearsal at some point before the keg runs out ;)
