While we keep calling this event a "wedding," this is essentially a celebration of our relationship and the people around us that have been there throughout it. Our initial vision for our wedding day was "all of the fun stuff" – that means while we may preserve some of the traditions you've seen at other weddings, think of it more of a party and less of a ceremony. That's why we're calling it our "I Do" BBQ!
Each Save The Date and Wedding Invite included the names of each guest we'd like in attendance. While we'd love to invite everyone, space is limited and we cannot accommodate additional guests.
We love your children, but we humbly request a child-less wedding unless you've already discussed an exception with us. We don't want to end up drunk on some kid's finsta after the party.
Please dress. If you need some direction, we recommend attire that's considered "garden party semi formal." Generally this is characterized by "nice, but not too nice" and in the style of a bright, warm outdoor party (embrace those flowy clothes and fun colors). Leave the ballroom dresses, tuxedos, and uncomfortable shoes at home. Your comfort and attendance means more to us than dressing to the nines, so feel free to take liberties with dress if it means you'll be more inclined to party.
The wedding will take place at Camp Culbertson, which is located at 417 Elm St., Glenview, IL, 60025. Please look for the red house with a tree that has a big bite taken out of it up front.
Every man, woman, and child for themselves (bribery, skullduggery, and treachery included). Street parking is available up & down Elm St., as well as across the surrounding area. We do not recommend parking at the nearby Elm Park, as it closes at dusk and may result in ticketing or towing. Please do not block driveways, and be mindful to ensure cars can pass you when on the street.
We'll offer an array of food throughout the evening, including vegetarian options. If you have additional dietary restrictions, please reach out to the bride and groom and we can help make the appropriate accommodations (unless you're just a picky eater, then bring your own chicken nuggets).
Yeah, no thanks. In fact, photography and videography is encouraged! Please update any photos you take to our shared photo platform after the wedding. You can view that here: https://app.kululu.com/atebny HOWEVER, please refrain from livestreaming our wedding – Facebook Live, Twitch, YouTube, etc. Unless we're getting a cut of your ad revenue and we signed a NIL deal, not happening, buddy.
Please plan to arrive at 4 pm. We'll kick off with mingling, appetizers, and dive into the wedding celebration shortly thereafter.
Of course there's going to be a bar. Neither of us drink extensively, but we'll offer wine, beer, bubby, and soda to guests. If you're looking for enough booze to turn your night into a scene from The Hangover, feel free to bring your own alcohol as is appropriate.
Yes, and we encourage you to do so! Use our Kululu gallery to upload your photos - from pictures of us to selfies of you and other guests - to our shared album: https://app.kululu.com/atebny
