Cozy Campfire Celebration!
8:00 pm
No need for dancing shoes… kick off the fancy attire and slip into something comfy! After dinner and a little formal fun, we’re flipping the script on tradition. You’re officially invited to swap the heels and dress shirts for hoodies and sweat pants, or whatever is most comfortable for you... because this is Northern Ontario Cottage Country, after all. Join us by the bonfire for a night of drinks, s’mores, story-sharing, and celebrating the love between Natalie & Ryan in the most “us” way possible: cozy, laid-back, and under the stars. Think campfire vibes, late-night laughs, and yes, there will be a late night snack (because what’s a bonfire without more food?!). Let’s toast to love, laughter, and the start of Natalie and Ryan’s greatest adventure yet!
