Schedule

The Wedding Website of Yelena Markiv and Michael McGraw
We feel so lucky to begin our forever with the people we love most. We'd like nothing more than to start our honeymoon with you. In the days following the wedding, we're planning a few optional activities on Friday and Saturday to explore the beauty of Washington State together. See below for a general schedule of events. More details to come. And of course, if you're planning your own adventures, we completely understand. We're happy to offer suggestions if you'd like to help you make the most of your time.

The Night Before

6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

For those who are able, please stop by the evening before the wedding for food, drinks, and a chance to spend time together before the big day. If possible, we invite everyone to wear Ukrainian embroidered clothing (vyshyvanka) or other embroidered attire. There are many options available online through Amazon, Etsy, and other retailers. We would love to share this special tradition with our family and friends and see everyone dressed in embroidered wear as we kick off our wedding weekend together.
