This is a come as you are, whateva's cleva event. Feel free to get gussied up or keep it casual- we'll just be happy to see you!
Please make sure to arrive before 1:30 in order to have time to grab a glass of prosecco or apple cider, a bag of popcorn and choose your seat. The organist will start playing a variety of some of our chosen covers at precisely 1:30 before the ceremony which we would hate for y'all to miss! Also for the record- PLEASE take advantage of the popcorn hard, because we got the cart special just you guys! Also important side note: children are more than welcome to attend the ceremony and do not need to be RSVP'd but unfortunately cannot attend the reception due to it taking place at a bar.
Reception
Fri, Oct 18, 2024, 5:00 pm - Sat, Oct 19, 2024, 1:00 am
3629 Martin Luther King Jr Way, Oakland, CA 94601
The afterparty will be held at the bar where we met almost 6 years ago!
We have rented it out privately for you & want everyone to attend, but just a heads up it's a bit on the divey side and may not be everyone's cup of tea, so if you want to RSVP for just the ceremony we totally get it, but hope you'll consider staying for the real fun! Because: the open bar will be available all night & you'll have your pick of any food from their menu. At 6:00 there will be an open mic where anyone who wants to make a speech, tell a joke at our expense or share a story! From 7-10 we've hired a cartoonist to draw keepsakes of everyone- so feel free to get in line! The house blues band will play so be prepared to dance, and there will be a pool table at everyone's disposal. If possible I would encourage folks to Uber for convenience and safety around getting our moneys worth at the open bar! Tip has been taken care of for the Eli's staff, but feel encouraged to throw some love to the band! We're so excited!!!
