5:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Dress Code: Casual - For men, think linen shirts, collared short sleeves, khakis, etc. For women, we'd love to see some fun colorful dresses, skirts, sets, etc. If you want some inspiration, please see our Pinterest board (https://pin.it/5JgcTdK4M)
We will have light bites and cocktails as we kick off the weekend and enjoy the sunset! Everyone will need to take the shuttle from the Los Trancos Parking Lot (Beachcomber Parking on Google) in Crystal Cove State Park to access the welcome drinks' location. You can park there for a fee or have your Uber drop you off there and we will have a personal shuttle bus take everyone over to the welcome drinks' location! **Note for Whole Weekend** - As it is a holiday weekend, traffic will be heavier than usual. Please allow extra travel time when planning out your day!
12:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Please join us for a beach day in Newport Beach! We will have a fun day under the sun with drinks, food, and games - chairs, towels, and shade will be provided as well! Stop by and stay as long as you'd like from 12pm to 5pm. Parking will be limited, so we recommend you Uber to the beach day. If you want to minimize Uber costs, you can drive and park in our neighborhood and Uber the 5 minutes down to the beach. Please text John or Melanie for more information if needed! For Ubers, it may be easiest to get dropped off across the street at Hotel Solarena (6208 West Coast Highway) and walk two blocks or so to the beach spot! Right in front of the pin is a one-way street so it can be slow moving sometimes. Text Shelly Benson if you are having trouble finding us or have any questions! - 303-503-6345
3:30 pm - 10:00 pm
Dress Code: Black-Tie Optional - For men, please wear a tuxedo or a dark suit and tie. For women, think long dresses in fun summer colors! If you want some inspiration, please see our Pinterest board (https://pin.it/2ebFK1xfP)
We will begin with the ceremony, followed by cocktail hour, a seated dinner, and dancing!
