The dress code is come as you are or come as your most authentic and joyful self. If you want to wear something outlandish, we encourage it as long as it is respectful and fabulous. The overall vibe is casual backyard wedding! Disco ball earrings? Unicorn onesie? Pantsuit? Sun dress? Giant floppy hat? An outfit change perhaps? Anything goes! When the sun goes down we will get weird! The ceremony will be outside so please dress for the weather. As of right now it is looking like a high of 77 degrees and a low of 57 degrees.
PLEASE please consider car pooling with someone you love or that you might uber so that you can enjoy a night full of festivities. Parking is limited. The parking available in the driveway will be reserved for our grandparents and other beloved elders. People should be able to park at the open space parking lot just south of the Paseo del Norte bridge. You can also park along Rio Grande Blvd or along the side roads. Please be careful when returning to your car in the evening, as Rio Grande Blvd is quite dark at night.
We wish we could invite most of planet earth but alas. We have already sent our final number (250 of your beautiful faces are coming!) to the vendors so no extra guests can be accounted for. Thank you for understanding.
We are foodies and plan to have snacks, drinks and food for all. Small plates style. It will be a long evening of snackin!
8712 Rio Grande Boulevard NW Albuquerque, New Mexico. The Rael residence! It is a very special place for us. We grew up in this house sharing many meals, spending holidays, taking prom pictures on the front lawn, getting engaged in the front yard and celebrating milestones, birthdays and more. We are so happy to add more memories and fill the space with even more love.
Yes!
- Your heart centered self! - A reusable cup. A gesture of love to the earth and makes finding your drink easy. - Wear bug spray! - Cash to tip the bartenders - Some dancin shoes! I would not recommend heels as the entire evening will be spent in the grass.
We would love cash to fund our honeymoon adventures! There is a link on this site where you can donate directly. We already live together and have no use for household items. Thank you for thinking of us!
