7:45 am - 9:00 am
The recommended attire is 'Smart Casual' meets 'Business/Informal'. Look good, sophisticated and happy but remember we're not at the Oscars and we're not in your backyard. For reference, Anthony will not be wearing a formal suit and/or tux. Sarah will be the star of the show and that's all that really matters.
You can wear whatever shoes you want, but please note the ceremony will be on a flat graveled area. Please be mindful of that and bring an extra pair of shoes if necessary. There is an easily accessible, free parking lot directly at Washburn Point and the ceremony will only be a few steps away. The weather forecast predicts a colder than average weekend, so be prepared for mid-50s to mid-60s temperatures. Ladies will likely want to wear cute jackets over their dresses. At the ceremony we will provide breakfast snacks (think croissants and muffins) and mimosas. Due to ambiguous regulations, you may need to break off into little groups during the ceremony. Please be flexible. A few friends will help facilitate this process.
10:30 am - 12:30 pm
We recommend bringing a comfortable pair of shoes to change into at this point, something suitable for walking lightly paved trails and picnicking. You may want to pack some light picnic foods and a picnic blanket.
After the ceremony there will be a 4-hr intermission until the after-party at 2:30pm. Sarah and Anthony will be taking photos with their photographers around the park during this time. We think this is the perfect opportunity for everyone else to take full advantage of the park. We highly recommend that you start by taking the 2-min drive to Glacier Point. This offers the best views in the park as well as public restrooms and a little gift and snack store. You're also welcome to take the 45 minute drive down into the valley where you can enjoy El Capitan, the river and more unique vantage points. On the way back down the mountain make sure you stop at Tunnel View for more epic views you won't want to miss. There are also many easy, paved hiking trails around Glacier Point and the valley.
2:30 pm
Please be mindful that it tends to get cold at night so bring the necessary jackets and shoes to keep you cozy if you prefer to spend more time outside on the deck.
We will provide dinner, served at 3:15pm, and drinks (beer, wine and a special cocktail made by the bride), so no need to bring anything unless you want a specific drink. This is our chance to all hangout, listen to music, eat, drink and be merry. As mentioned before, this is not our formal "reception" so there won't be formal dining, dancing or other normal wedding formalities. We will play some games and also open up the floor for speeches. We highly encourage everyone to shake their booty!
