Reception

3:00 pm - 10:00 pm

The Village at Richardson Creek
Monroe, WA 98272

The vibe is effortless elegance. Dress to impress & express yourself! Our biggest hope for the night is that you mingle, dance, and truly get to know one another.

This evening is purely about celebrating, relaxing, and gathering with the absolute favorite people in our lives. We want you to entirely shatter your expectations of what a traditional wedding reception looks like. Instead, imagine the ultimate, elevated DIY garden party. Rather than a formal sit-down catered dinner, the evening will flow like a long, casual, and intimate dinner party. We’ll be serving up curated charcuterie boards, a catered food truck, and plenty of cocktails. One last thing: bring a swimsuit and a towel! Hot tub time machine baby!
