You Are Joyfully Invited to Carlie and Tyler’s Wedding Celebration! :)
On Saturday, June 7th, we’re celebrating getting married and we’d love you and your family to be there. There will be delicious food, great tunes, and lots of dancin’ shoes!
On Sunday, June 8th, we’ll have a sweet brunch with friends and family from close and afar. We hope you can join in celebrating our love for each other and for the people that made us into the people we are today (YOU!! :).
Party!
Saturday, June 7th
4:00PM — 12:00AM
River Road Unitarian Universalist Congregation
6301 River Rd, Bethesda, MD 20817
Dress Theme:
Outdress the Bride & Groom! Consider this your official challenge to be creative and to upstage or overdress the bride and groom as best you can. Sparkles, glitter, ballgowns, suits, tuxes, tiaras, dancing shoes, anything that makes you look and feel like the center of attention. No fashion risk is too bold, nothing is off limits. Whatever you do, just don’t wear something boring.
What to Bring?
Your favorite cookies or your favorite bottle of wine to share.
Cookies for the Cookie Table! This Western Pennsylvania wedding tradition is shared by both Carlie and Tyler’s extended families. We invite you to bring a shareable batch of homemade (or store-bought) cookies to contribute to this cookie potluck, and everyone goes home with an assorted goodie bag of a variety of flavors.
Bring your date and your kids (your whole family is welcome). For example, you can bring your wife and her boyfriend, as long as everyone can dance together.
Parking: There is plenty of parking at the venue (large parking lot and street parking). If you plan on drinking, please plan to have a designated driver or Uber sweep you safely back to your place of abode.
