4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Casual outdoor
Please join us at the “Shanty” – a beachy bar so divey that it’s become one of the hot places to go in Cardiff, especially with its views of the ocean and Cardiff’s world famous “Kook.” We will have food, cocktails, beer, wine, and non-alcohol served by the Shanty outdoors with firepits. For those who like it a little rougher, with some pool thrown in, there is the inside bar. Get re-acquainted with old friends and meet new ones before the weekend festivities start in earnest! The attire is Cardiff casual- t-shirts, sweatshirts, jeans, shorts – whatever is comfortable and depending on the weather, warm. Everyone’s party favor will be distributed here, or at the ceremony the next day.
2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
New Years Eve Outdoor
Please join us on the outdoor ocean view patio of Trattoria Positano for the ceremony followed by a champagne toast. Other than the bridal party, the attire is casual, and everyone is encouraged to wear denim and white shirts – there will be a lot of picture taking!
3:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Take a hike on the beach or in the famous and breathtaking Cardiff Lagoon or, rest and get ready for the big wedding day/NYE celebration later in the evening.

New Years Eve
Please join us at Trattoria Positano, our very favorite local family run Italian restaurant in celebrating the start of our new life together as well as ringing in the New Year. It will be festive, festive, festive, in honor of our wedding, and New Years Eve, so dress, as you would for a fun New Years Eve Party. There will be a heavy cocktail hour, followed by dinner, dessert, and plenty of dancing, toasts, speeches and New Years Cheer. Due to license constraints, the restaurant venue itself will be serving a lovely Chardonnay, Italian Red, our very favorite Champagnes, carefully chosen local craft beers and non-alcoholic drinks. We are making arrangements to ensure that our guests have plenty of cocktails of their choice available as well.
11:00 am - 2:00 pm
Casual
Please join us at our home and allow us to thank you for coming and to say goodbye with brunch. Football will be on our TV’s and the attire is wholly casual.
