Not exactly! We’re having a private ceremony beforehand, so this is a party to celebrate our marriage with our friends and family.

We’ve rented out the back patio of our favorite neighborhood bar, Black Forest! To enter the patio, go down the driveway to the right of the building. You can’t miss it.

Please park in the St. John Lutheran Church parking lot to the east (left) of Black Forest. There’s also street parking on the side street to the west (right), but be sure NOT to park in the Warehouse Beverage parking lot.

Dress code is festive/smart casual. We recommend a polo or summer button down with golf shorts/slacks or jeans for the guys. For the gals - a fun sun dress, cute top and jeans, etc. Whatever you’d wear to a summer backyard barbecue and feel good being photographed in.

This is more of a casual celebration, so no dance floor—just great food, drinks, and fun conversations. Though, if you feel like dancing, no one will stop you!
