Question

Will there be a welcome reception or a goodbye brunch?

Answer

While we are not able to host a welcome reception due to the timing of the rehearsal dinner, we invite everyone to join us for a casual beach gathering at Carmel Beach from 2pm-4pm on Sunday, July 31st so that we can reflect on the fun we had the night before and bid our guests farewell. More information will be added to the schedule section as it becomes available.
