Schedule & Events
All events will be held outdoors at Witsend Farms. Times are (close) estimates!
Friday 8/14 6-10pm
Welcome Party!
Speeches start at 7:30A casual gathering before the big day for those arriving a bit early! Feel free to drop in at your leisure. It may not be the latest night (Riley and Chelsea have to be up the next day!) but it will be fun. We’re trying to wrangle some Karaoke and lawn games, and we’ll definitely have some food and drinks! There is also a hot tub and pool on the property for those who like to swim. Things might get cool in the evening, so bring a layer!
We will not have a shuttle arranged for Friday so your best bet is to carpool as much as possible! Ubers and Lyfts are available, but can be expensive since we’re so far out of the way.
We recommend bringing any lawn games (or sport balls?) that you have! The property is EXPANSIVE and I *know* some of you like sports lol.
The dress code is truly casual! Wear a cute cookout fit! Wear shorts and a band tee! It’s a cookout!
