(FYI we're 100% leaving without you if you're late) Everyone (including Alex & Natalie) will meet at the Super 1 Foods in Columbia Falls to ride a charter bus to the wedding ceremony location. It shouldn't be a problem to park and leave your car in that parking lot. After the wedding ceremony, the bus will take everyone back. It will be about a 2 hour ride each way. Alcohol is allowed, must bring your own alcohol. No smoking cigarettes, cigars, vapes, etc. We recommend you eat lunch before joining us on the bus, and bring any snacks or food, since you probably won't be returning to Columbia Falls until about 7:30-8:00pm.
4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Dressy casual.
The ceremony will be short and sweet at the lakeshore. After pictures with family and friends, everyone is free to leave. The charter bus will take everyone back. Alex and Natalie will stay with their photographer for the rest of the evening.
