Wedding Week and Weekend

Welcome Dinner

4:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Emeril's Coastal is a fine dining casual restaurant. Guests are typically dressed very nicely, however, coat and tie are not expected or recommended. Joe and I suggest your best comfortable beach attire! Slacks, dress or Polo shirts for men, and sun dresses or slacks with nice summer shirts or blouses for women.

This is a No-Host optional event. Invited guests are asked to RSVP on this website and to make dinner reservations with Annie Erickson (via email) by 15 April. annie.erickson@emerillagasse.com Inform Annie you are with Joe and Melanie's Welcome Dinner. Arrive at 4:15 PM for seating by an Emeril's Coastal Host or Hostess. Dinner reservations begin at 4:30 PM. Parking: Lot left of the front of the restaurant. Emeril's Coastal is one of our favorite dining experiences! The menu, cocktail, and wine lists are extensive. A separate menu for each evening is generally offered beyond the set menu. The restaurant wall paintings were created by one of Emeril's sons. The decor and atmosphere are lovely and lively. We call Emeril's Coastal our Happy Place! We often enjoy seeing Emeril in the open kitchen with his Chefs. We hope you will join us and we feel certain the dining experience will be great for everyone! After dinner, Joe and I welcome you to our home for dessert!

Rehearsal Dinner Party

5:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Dress comfortably for a May evening!

This event is hosted by Melanie and Joe at the home of our dear friends, Bryce and Terry Harvey. Guests are primarily family, out of state guests, and local friends who may not be attending the wedding. The Vue on 30A Terrace only accommodates 68 guests for our Wedding Ceremony, Dinner, and Reception. We are very blessed to have many wonderful friends in the Santa Rosa Beach area. So, we've planned this event to honor family, our friends from out of state, and more of our local friendships. Invited guests are asked to RSVP on this website by 15 April. We look forward to celebrating our wedding with our family and many of our friends during the Rehearsal Dinner Party!
