Day Time Hang Out
1:00 pm
UI. Ivana pl. Zajca 30,, Dubrovnik, 20000, Croatia
Bathing suits & sunscreen
An 8 minute walk from the hotel spits you out at Coral Beach Club. Come grab a drink on the beach before the Rehearsal Dinner back at the hotel. Live DJ, kayaks to rent, etc. We'll have a few cabanas for our group so there will be a place to sit and dry off after jumping into the water (: This is an informal event for anyone who happens to be around Monday afternoon. Not part of the wedding week schedule- just an opportunity to check out one of our favorite spots in town. We will have a section marked off for anyone who can join, and your first round will be on us, but otherwise individual tabs aka every man for himself! (;
The (not so formal) Rehearsal Dinner
6:30 pm
UI kardinala Stepinca 31a, Dubrovnik, 20000, Croatia
Absolutely no formal attire required. Wear whatever you'd like! This will be within the hotel, meaning no long walks or cobblestones so if you'd like to wear heels, go for it.
We'll be having sunset cocktails and apps in leu of a rehearsal dinner so please join us at the hotel! Everything will be supplied so bring nothing, just come hungry and thirsty. Stay and hang afterwards or hop in an Uber and grab a late night drink in Old Town if you're feeling up to it (;

The Big Day!
4:30 pm
It will be warm out even after the sun goes down so we suggest lighter options. Ladies: keep in mind the cobble stones. Chunky heels for the win. Gentlemen: No tux's required. Please text/call Michaela with any attire questions (:
Cocktail attire is preferred as the photographer will *hopefully* snag everyone throughout the evening, but we have no color scheme or requirements, so wear what you love. It will be an evening wedding starting at 4:30 pm with no other events planned before hand so spend the day as you'd like then hop on the shuttle. There will be a pick up shuttle at The Royal Princess hotel to drop all guests at the wedding venue, as well as a shuttle after the wedding to bring whomever back to the hotel. Pick up shuttle time at Royal Neptune hotel: 3:30 pm Pick up shuttle from old town back to hotels: midnight The reception is a few minutes driving from the wedding ceremony. A quick shuttle ride will take us around the corner to the venue where we will have an open bar & more than enough appetizers. Rather than ask our guests for individual food preferences, we will have a little bit of everything for you to enjoy for dinner- including those with any dietary restrictions (:
After Party Pt. 1
11:30 pm
We have to be out of the wedding venue by midnight- so for those who will NOT be ready to call it a night by that time- we will walk down a flight of steps and end up at yet another beach club (oh darn). Most clubs go until the sun comes up so stay out as long and as late as you'd like. Ubers and taxis are always available, and every taxi driver will know the hotel by its name: "Royal Princess Hotels" so if you aren't able to pull up the exact address in your inebriated state- no worries (;

After Party Pt. 2
11:30 am - 8:00 pm
We are almost more excited about the BOWA day more than they are for our actual wedding day. Arguably the coolest restaurant experience that either of us have had, BOWA is one of the most badass parts of Croatia, hands down. Located on an isolated bay on the island of Sipan, near Dubrovnik is one of our all time favorite spots
Friday at 11:30am there will be a shuttle to take everyone to the harbor where we will hop on a boat and take a 1 hour ride over to the island (and yes, cocktails will absolutely present on the boat), and have the entire place to ourselves for the the day. The owner and chef of BOWA will prepare fish caught that day, as well as a variety of other fresh dishes- and don't worry we have options for our meat eaters and vegans as well! In addition, you can expect hand-picked vegetables & fruits from BOWA’s own garden, as well as home-made Šipan island olive oil Spend the day eating, drinking, laughing, swimming, and sunbathing. We really are so excited for this part of the celebration *For anyone who will be uber-ing directly to the Harbor it is "Gruz Harbor" the name of the boat is Regina Maris*
