We decided to have an intimate ceremony in Zion National Park before our reception. This park has tight limitations on guests, and is not accessible to all our family and friends. It was important to us to have our ceremony there as the great outdoors are deeply engrained into us as a couple. We couldn't imagine a more meaningful place to say "I-do." We are having our ceremony and vows filmed so that we can share with everyone at the reception! There will be a dedicated time to enjoy the short video during cocktail hour before dinner and dancing begin. We ask you to arrive a little early or on time for cocktail hour so we can get right into the party! We thank you for understanding and respecting our wishes!
Please arrive around 15 minutes prior to the start time of the event to navigate to the Belle Voir Manor at Pen Ryn Estate in Bensalem, PA. There may be traffic crossing the bridge and there are three venues at the estate. There will be attendants to point you in the right direction. Our cocktail hour begins at 4:30 pm, where we will be making our entrance and joining the party!
Please dress your best - we are asking you to wear formal attire! Gentlemen, please wear your favorite suit and tie. Ladies, if you have a floor length dress or formal jumpsuit in the back of your closet, and weren't sure where to wear it, tonight is the night! If you don't have a long dress, please don't feel like you need to buy something new, you can wear a mid-length or cocktail dress you already own.
Please enter Pen Ryn Estate, Bensalem, PA into your GPS. Once you are on the property, you can follow signs towards Belle Voir Manor or ask the staff as you drive up. Depending on your location there are a few different bridges you can take, if arriving from New Jersey. The drinks are on us, and the hangover is on you, so please plan a sober and responsible ride, we want to continue celebrating with you for years to come.
We have booked a room at the Grand Resort Hotel in Mount Laurel, NJ! This hotel is located right off Rt. 73 and easy to get to from most major highways. Our after party will be here as well. If you are a guest at the hotel, please indicate that on your RSVP so we can plan for a shuttle to and from the venue. Go to the travel tab to book a discounted room. Please book by October 27th, 2025. There are also lots of other hotel options on either side of the river as well as AirBnB options near Philadelphia, should that meet your family's needs better.
Your presence is all we need to celebrate our marriage, especially if you are making plans to travel! Should you want to give a gift, our registry on Amazon has a few items you could search through. We would also truly appreciate any contribution towards our honeymoon or home improvement fund via cash or gift-cards.
