When you get here, press #210 on the buzzer on the front of the building. We want to create some additional time for us to hang out with you, and for all the people we love to get to know each other. We'll have some snacks and games. It would be super helpful if you're available to bring a small snack too! Come whenever you'd like. We're imagining a rotating cast of characters throughout the evening. We can't wait to celebrate and hang with you!

Attire: Wear something that feels special to you! You are welcome to wear Boho style. If you want a fun excuse to dress up, dress up! The day will have a boho-family theme, and.. you should feel free to rock that, or your own style. For inspiration, search “boho groomsmen” or “bohemian chic.” or “boho maxi dress” But don't feel like you have to wear anything you don't feel like yourself in!

We know, we know; this sounds crazy, suspend judgment for just a moment. Imagine turquoise water, soft white sand beaches, amazing food... and good friends. We would love to have you join us in Thailand from June 11-18 after our honeymoon! We'll fly into Bangkok and then travel to the beautiful island of Koh Pha Ngan (pronounced "Go pan gan.") We'll spend days spent riding mopeds through the jungle and basking on the beach, and nights filled with sunsets and dancing and eating amazing food. if you RSVP "Yes" we'll simply take that to mean you'd like to hear a bit more and we'll send you info. Cost: Flights are the most expensive part, if you buy them in July, they will be around $750 round trip. This is the largest expense of the trip. Lodging and food is inexpensive.
