The ceremony will begin at 4 pm.

The ceremony will be outdoors and the reception will be indoors. Weather permitting, the retractable walls will be opened for the reception. In the event of heavy rain, the ceremony can be moved to the indoor space.

We kindly request that only children and guests named on your invitation attend.

Formal attire is preferred but not mandatory.

Yes! Drinks on us... hangover on you ;)

We are registered through a few stores, but all gifts are synced to one registry that can be found at: https://www.theknot.com/us/sydney-stapf-and-nathan-mcdonald-may-2026/registry

Please refrain from taking photos and using electronic devices during the ceremony. During the reception, photos are encouraged! We will be collecting guest photos from the night using a QR code. Or, if you are here after the wedding, we would love to see your photos through this link: https://knipsmig.com/p8mRXZeo

We would like to make our own formal announcement on social media with photos from the wedding. Until we have made our own post, please avoid sharing photos from the evening.

The bride and groom as well as their families will step away to take photos. Cocktail hour will begin with drinks and appetizers.
