What time should I arrive?
We recommend arriving 20–30 minutes before the ceremony begins so you have time to park, settle in, and enjoy the peaceful morning setting with us.
Will the ceremony be outdoors?
Yes. We will be exchanging our vows on a grassy lawn, with photos to follow on the sandy beach by the lake. We cannot wait to celebrate surrounded by nature and the people we love most.
What happens if it rains?
If Florida decides to surprise us with rain, an indoor space with seating will be available. November can still bring occasional showers, so you may wish to pack a light umbrella during your trip just in case.
Is parking available?
Yes, parking will be available at the ceremony location for your convenience.
Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
Yes, the venue is wheelchair accessible and we want all of our loved ones to feel comfortable joining us.
Will the reception be outdoors?
Following the ceremony, we will gather outdoors for a small cake cutting and a short toast. We will be serving lemon and raspberry cake as we begin this sweet new chapter together.
Attire
We invite you to join us in semi-formal attire as we celebrate on a beautiful November morning in Florida. Gentlemen are kindly asked to wear button-down shirts with slacks and dress shoes, with ties optional. Ladies are encouraged to wear dresses or sundress styles that feel elegant yet comfortable.
Black, gold, and green hues, including florals, are warmly encouraged to complement the setting and overall aesthetic of the day. Please keep in mind that the ceremony will take place on grass and photos will be on the sandy beach when selecting footwear.
Can I bring a plus one?
We kindly ask that only the guests listed on the invitation attend, as we are keeping our celebration intimate and intentional.
Are children invited?
We are happy to include children who are specifically named on the invitation and look forward to celebrating with them. We kindly ask that only those listed join us.
Registry
We are dreaming of beginning this next chapter of our lives with an unforgettable journey to Japan. From exploring the vibrant streets of Tokyo to experiencing the country’s rich culture, history, and traditions, this adventure would be a meaningful way for us to start our marriage side by side. Japan has long held a special place in our hearts, and we cannot wait to experience it together.
