What is the timeline for the weekend?
Our wedding is taking place on a Friday evening, so we encourage all of our out of town guests to come in the day before since traveling sometimes doesn't go as planned... We wouldn't want you to miss anything!
There are many beautiful locations to visit, places to shop and great restaurants to eat at while in town for the weekend. More information can be found on the "Things to Do" page.
The Dubel's will be hosting a brunch at their home the day after the wedding for all guests to attend in order to continue the celebrations! Weather permitting, this will be primarily an outdoor event so please check the weather before so you know what to pack to wear.. September weather in New Jersey can be all over the place.
What can I expect at the Saturday brunch?
The Saturday brunch is just another chance to get everyone together to celebrate one more time! We will have a variety of breakfast food and beverages to enjoy. If the weather is still nice and warm, the pool will be open and ready to enjoy so please bring your bathing suits and a towel. There will also be yard games, a firepit and music to enjoy.
