Head downtown to enjoy our town and say hi to the bride and groom! Harbor Springs hosts "Street Musique" on Thursday nights from 6:30 to 8:30, which includes live music at various outdoor locations around town. Zell & Nicole will be heading downtown after their rehearsal dinner (around 7 PM) and will be at Marina Park (next to the City Dock and Pier restaurant) to begin the evening before moving to Bar Harbor, where Zell's brother Neal will be playing music. Cocktails can be purchased from any downtown establishment and enjoyed in the downtown area (including Marina Park). (This event is informal and kids and other guests may attend. Parking is available around downtown, in municipal lots, and on side streets.)

Join us at one of our favorite spots for a "pub marg" and some late night nachos! (Please note that this bar is not friendly to guests with peanut allergies as they crack them and throw the shells on the ground. Just a heads up!)
1:00 pm
your bathing suit, sandals, and a good sunhat
BYO FOOD, DRINK, SUNSCREEN, CHAIR, TOWEL (you get the idea) Grab some food and drink in town and head up the shoreline to spend the afternoon with us at our favorite beautiful beach, Sturgeon Bay! We will be bringing several coolers of refreshments, but please bring whatever you need to have some fun in the sun for the day! We will have a sign on the cars parked on the road to mark our location on the beach. Children welcome. For our out-of-town guests, we recommend driving on M-119 along the coast on your way to the beach or back to town. It's our proudest scenic route in the area and worth the trip! (Stop at Trillium Woods coffee on the way! Owned by friends.) Local guests: give us a hand and bring an extra beach chair if you have it! Please note that this is a rather "rustic" beach location. There is a small sand dune to walk over to get to the beach. There are no bathrooms at this location; the closest bathrooms are a 10-minute drive away from the beach.
11:30 am - 1:30 pm
Come cap off the weekend and bid farewell to the bride and groom! Grab a breakfast sandwich and a coffee before you hit the road. Parking is available on the street around the club. Enter from Bay or Main St and head to the back area where we will be seated under the tent.
