Casual and Fun Attire
This is the Rehearsal Dinner for the Wedding Party and Family (Both Local and Out-Of-State Family). They don't know it yet, but this will be hosted by Mike's Parents Howard & Jocelyn Gross and Bob & Kelly Dobbin. I figure its better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission, right?!? Thanks guys! We love you!
4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Cocktail, please. But we want you to feel comfortable, so if those shoes are too high or that top button is too tight, let it all hang loose.
There will be a few light bites in addition to beer and some refreshing non-alcoholic beverages. Can’t wait to see you! Also, we will have some fun lawn games set-up so make sure you challenge Mike to a few games, just make sure he makes it to the ceremony sober and on-time, because well, Angela says so.
5:00 pm - 5:30 pm

The ground can be a little uneven, so you might want to rethink stilettos! Also, we ask that you do not take photos with your cameras during the ceremony. We have hired a professional photographer and videographer to help us perfectly capture our special moments. And although we love you to pieces, I don't think we want our beautiful photos to focus on your limbs and cell phones. I'm sure their pretty but you can show them to us at the reception if you really wish.

Dinner, drinks and dancing to follow our ceremony! There's an outdoor space that can get a little chilly at night—we recommend bringing a shawl or light jacket. Also, ladies should bring a pair of comfy shoes, to dance in if you want. Dinner will consist of good ol' BBQ which will include BBQ Chicken, BBQ Brisket & BBQ Pulled Pork. Sides will include of course Rolls (because it's Mike after all) then the less important Cesar Salad, Corn on the Cobb, Mac'n'Cheese & something else yummy. Bibs and wet naps will be included. If you are a vegetarian, please let us know so we can seat you with the rabbits...I mean so we can accommodate you. ;) We still love you. But you really should try the meats. We will be providing Beer and Wine as well as soft drinks and water. If you would like to drink specialty drinks, you are more than welcome and invited to bring your own alcohol and mixers.
