Our ceremony starts at 3:00 PM. We would like everyone to have arrived around 2:30 PM and seated by 2:45 PM, just before our ceremony begins. We've been to plenty of weddings that are running even just a little behind, causing you to end up waiting a long time for the bride and groom to show up and start dinner/the reception so we completely understand the frustration with that. We want things to run as smoothly as possible for not only us but also for everyone attending!
As we will be finishing up things from the ceremony and dinner, we would like the guests for the reception to arrive at 6:30 pm so you don't miss first dances, cake cutting, etc. We will be providing snacks throughout the night for those invited to the reception.
We would like to start serving alcohol to our guests after the ceremony. The bar will not be open before or during the ceremony. We will be taking a few more pictures as bride and groom after the ceremony, as we are not doing a first look. Please feel free to have a drink and some appetizers as we finish our photos. We will finish up the rest of our photos as quick as possible so we can get dinner and the reception started!
We have booked 2 party buses to transport our wedding party and guests from the Discovery Lodge to Bally's Casino Hotel. The bus will arrive at the Discovery Lodge at 10:30 PM for any guest that would like to leave a little early. The wedding party will be leaving around 11:00 PM to head to the casino. Any family/friends that are part of the clean up crew will picked up last around midnight. The Discovery Lodge is allowing anyone to leave cars there for the night as well - we would like everyone that has been drinking to please ride the party bus or get an uber to your next destination whether that be home or the casino to continue celebrating with us!
As much as we would love to say "the more the merrier," we have decided to make this an invite only event. Please no "plus one" or kiddos unless your invite states otherwise!
No specific dress code - just don't show up in your muddy jeans and dirty boots please :)
We are not registered anywhere. As most of you know, Isaac & I have been living together for quite some time so we have basically all the home essentials we need. We have decided to ask for a honeymoon fund instead! VENMO: caraevans7 CASHAPP: caraevans07
