Our Wedding

It all started when Josh walked into Kayla's office at State Farm. He had been rear-ended by someone and they were committing insurance fraud by curating a fake ID card. He had needed to file a claim to fix his truck. Kayla walked him into her office and helped him. Once he left, she told her coworker that he was cute and "I should call him back in." A few months pass, and he had liked her on a dating app. Kayla, being the fool she is, declined him, but instantly realized who he was. She scoured the book of faces for him and sent him a message. "Hey, did you just like me on this dating app?" To which he replied, "Yes, ma'am, I believe so." They get to talking when he asks, "So, do I need to switch offices to take you out on a date?" And the rest is history. So, thank you, sir, for rear-ending Joshua. Or else Kayla would've never found her happily ever after. #HappilyHenry

It All Started With a Crash...

Wedding Party

Cocktail attire is dressy but not formal. Think polished, elegant, and party-ready.For women: Cocktail dresses, midi or knee-length dresses, dressy jumpsuits, or an elevated skirt-and-top pairing. Heels, wedges, or dressy flats work well.For men: A suit or dress pants with a blazer and button-down shirt. A tie is welcome but optional; dress shoes are encouraged.In short: look sharp and celebratory, but no need for floor-length gowns or tuxedos.Our colors are shades of blue (navy, dusty, slate), so feel free to wear any of those!

Dress Code

Q + A

You are welcome to choose a hotel wherever. However, if you choose Lake Charles, for safety and travel time, please choose a location closer to I-210. We have listed various options below.

This is the closest hotel to the venue. It is about 10 minutes.

Hampton Inn & Suites Jennings

This is in Lake Charles, which is about 30 minutes from the venue. However, this location will give you more dining and entertainment experiences than those closest to our venue.

Golden Nugget Lake Charles Hotel & Casino

This hotel is also in Lake Charles. Also 30 minutes from the venue, but easily accessible to 210 and I-10 East. Also in the hub of Lake Charles, there are plenty of dining options and shopping locations.
