Our Wedding
4:30 pm - 10:00 pm
2201 Lakeland Road, Louisville, KY 40241
We are planning to have the ceremony outside, weather permitting, so be prepared to walk in the grass!
After the ceremony, we will have a cocktail hour from 5-6pm, followed by the reception. During the cocktail hour, we will be hosting a book swap for anyone who wants to participate. If you'd like to, please bring a book that you love and want to pass along, and choose one to take home with you! We will have a stamp you can use to mark the inside of the book to commemorate the day. The reception will have a buffet dinner (breakfast food is the theme!), as well as cake and desserts.
