We’re so excited to kick off our wedding weekend with all of our favorite people! Join us for a relaxed evening filled with sweet desserts, laughter, and time to catch up before the big day. We wanted to create a special moment to spend time with everyone who has traveled near and far to celebrate with us, and this welcome party is the perfect way to start the weekend surrounded by the friends and family we love most.

Join us as we say “I do” at the beautiful Duke Chapel. The ceremony begins at 3:00 p.m., and we kindly ask guests to arrive by 2:30 p.m. to allow time for parking and walking to the chapel. Because parking is limited, we encourage guests to carpool when possible. We can’t wait to celebrate this special moment with you!

Following the ceremony, please join us for an evening of dinner, dancing, and celebration at The Barn at Valhalla. The reception will begin immediately after the ceremony, with about a 20–30 minute drive from Duke Chapel. Those who have been asked to stay for photos will remain at the chapel, while all other guests are kindly asked to head directly to the reception venue, as the bride and groom will be on a tight timeline following their chapel exit.
