Our Wedding

It is crazy for us to think that pretty soon we will have spent more of our lives together than apart. The two of us met our freshmen year of high school at our summer expedition when we were 13 years old! We were both training to play soccer for fall season, and happened to go out for a GCS group run early in the morning before the expedition day started. Calder finished the run first with his friend and to his surprise the next person to come through was the new girl. After a few weeks of chasing, Calder managed to trick Shay into their first date after telling her that their other friends "didn't show up and couldn't make it anymore". Next thing we knew we were seniors in high school and still going strong... When we hit college Calder went and played lacrosse at Loyola University of Maryland (Go Hounds!) and Shay went to play at the University of Maryland (OATAAT!). Whether it was their undeniable connection, busy schedules, or the bet that Shay made with her mom that if the two made it through college she would take them to Greece, Shay and Calder managed to stay together and come out of those 4 years even stronger. We now live together in Locust point and are extremely happy and ready to celebrate these past chapters of our love story while beginning to write the next!

Wedding Party

Where are the ceremony and reception taking place?Both the ceremony and reception will be at the same location, Swan Harbor Farm. The ceremony, rain or shine, will take place outside either in the field, overlooking the water, or the tent, in the case of inclement weather. The cocktail hour will take place in the garden. The reception will take place in the tent, rain or shine. Can I bring a plus one?Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. What time should I arrive?Our ceremony start time is 5pm. Please arrive at least 30 minutes prior to our ceremony to park and find your seat. What is the dress code?We would love to see our friends and family look nice! Please dress in semi-formal attire (dresses/button down shirt) for our big day! Men, feel free to skip the tie. Please refrain from wearing white, beige or cream colors, as well as jeans. Please take into consideration the temperature in late September and dress accordingly so you can be as comfortable as possible. Just a friendly reminder that the ceremony and reception will be outside. Can we bring our kids?Although we love your little ones, we have decided to keep our wedding adults-only with the exception of the children that are in our bridal party. We hope you understand and enjoy your night off! What is the parking situation?There is ample free parking at the venue. You can leave your cars there over night but they need to be picked up by 8am! We want everyone to be safe going home so you may want to consider other travel options. When do I have to RSVP by?We ask that everyone RSVP by 8/25/25. If you do not RSVP by that date, you will be marked as "not attending". We would love to celebrate with you, however we are required to provide the exact guest count to our vendors to ensure they have ample time and preparation so they cannot accept late RSVP's. Thank you for understanding!Additional questions? Send us an email! shaylan.ahearn1@gmail.com
