While we appreciate your lucky socks, it's time to channel your inner James Bond and Audrey Hepburn! Ladies, we'd love for you to throw on your most elegant black gown; gentlemen, hop in a snazzy suit and tie or a dashing tuxedo.
RSVP by September 16th, either by mail or right here on Zola. Choose your favorite method and let us know if you'll be joining our fabulous festivities!
Our wedding ceremony will take place outdoors, surrounded by nature's beauty (weather permitting). The cocktail hour and reception will immediately follow in a stunning contemporary structure built around a hand-hewn oak barn frame from 1853, adorned with shou sugi ban siding and hand-bleached pecan floors. Both events are at the same lovely location.
In Emory, Texas, in October, Mother Nature likes to keep things mild with temperatures around 60-80°F (15-27°C). But just like a thrilling ride on the Midway at the State Fair, the weather can be unpredictable. It couldn't hurt to pack an umbrella or a light jacket just in case!
While most of our mini-guests will be part of the wedding party, we kindly ask that other children enjoy a fun-filled evening elsewhere. This way, all our adult guests can fully savor the festive atmosphere without worry.
We'd love for you to arrive fashionably early, around 4:00 PM. That gives us plenty of time to gather everyone before our 4:15 PM start. Don't be late for our very important date; we don't want you to miss our "I do" moment! Dinner, drinks and dancing to follow until we head back to Dallas at 10:15 PM
No secret handshake required, but when using GPS systems to route yourself to our venue, type in “Scarbrough Haven” as opposed to typing in the address. Some GPS systems have the roads closest to the property labelled incorrectly. As a result, some navigation software sends people to the wrong part of Emory! The saftest bet is to use GPS to get you to Emory itself and then use the directions below to get to the venue. We will be waiting for you down a long and winding one-way country road. Once you turn off of 515 onto CR 3190, we will have directional signs pointing the way to your destination. If you need extra help, give us a shout.
Once in Emory: Turn onto FM 515 Turn north onto CR 3190 (near a white water tower) and drive 0.5 miles. Turn right (east) at the dead end. Follow 3190 for 1 mile. There will be several curves. You will pass Scarbrough Meadows. Turn right (east) on 3160 at Scarbrough Ranch (a brick house with a white metal roof and a large yard with trees along the fence line). Follow the road 1.7 miles through several more curves until you reach a dead end. You have arrived at Scarbrough Haven!
Transportation will be provided for guests flying in from out-of-town, and taking off from the Highland Hotel- departing sharply at 2:30 PM. The bus will take a trip back to Dallas after dinner for anyone who is ready to head back and will return for the send-off at 10:15PM.
Worry not, dear friend! Scarbrough Haven offers generous parking for your vehicular companions. Simply park on the grass in front of the event venue, The Aurora at Scarbrough Haven. The best part? It's completely free. Keep that change for some post-wedding fun!
Once we've exchanged our vows, the bridal party and family will be whisked away for photos. Meanwhile, guests can make their way to the breathtaking reception area, just a stone's throw from the ceremony site, to kick off the celebrations with delicious hors d'oeuvres and refreshing beverages.
