Both the ceremony and the reception will be held at the Agricola Street Brassiere, a restaurant in the North End of Halifax. We are hoping to have the ceremony on the rooftop patio, although this is weather dependent. Alternatively the ceremony will be inside, along with the reception.

We suggest that you stay downtown or somewhere along Agricola St, which is where the wedding venue is located.

Having you at our wedding is honestly the best gift for Andrew and I! If you do wish to give a gift something, Andrew and I are saving to buy a house and would appreciate a cash gift to put towards this. We will also be working on a small registry, which will be available on this website shortly.
