Take a walk across the George Washington Bridge (enter on Cabrini Blvd and W 180th Street) for gorgeous views of the New York skyline and the Hudson River.
This isn't a traditional ceremony/reception, so we want to emphasize the importance of Cocktail Party. Please feel free to wear bright colors, your favorite jumpsuit, sequins, or something that you've been saving for a special occasion. The time is NOW!!! Also, please make sure you have sunglasses. Part of the event will be outside on the roof deck and we want your eyes to be protected and comfortable!
We kindly ask that only those who are on the invitation attend. Thank you for your understanding!
We love kids. Seriously we do. But weddings and/or cocktail parties really aren't for kids, right? We won't have any activities that are kid-friendly (photo booths, Chicken Dance, Cha Cha Slide, etc.). We don't want to label this a strictly kid-free event because childcare is expensive and it's more important that we have our loved ones in attendance. However, we ask that you consider the type of event, the venue, the sensory stimuli of a late-night cocktail party, and, most importantly, the amount of alcohol that will be consumed by the 70+ adults in attendance before planning to bring a little human. Please reach out to us if you want to discuss further.
Arrival is 5pm and the event ends at 11pm.
Tentative late-night happy hour at Jalao downstairs from 11-????

If you're responding for you and a guest (or your family), you'll be able to RSVP for your entire group on the next page.
The Emcees
John and Sarah have been our #1s for our entire relationship. They've known Jared forever but John still can't believe he's only known Patrick for 7 years (seriously ask him he can't believe it). What better people to officiate our wedding than our New York ride-or-dies?
Officiants
Skye and Jared started as workplace enemies (it's a long story involving some poop and a job offer but we digress) but once Patrick and Eugene were added to the mix the rest is history. Skye and Eugene will be speaking to Jared and Patrick's relationship and will be performing a symbolic ritual to honor their marriage.
Patrick's Best People
Who better to toast this union and embarrass Patrick than his sister from another mister and his actual brother from the same mother?
Jared's Best People
The final installment of the Dirty Clavs Matrimonial Trilogy.
