This day is for you. For us, it’s a chance to spend time with the people we love. And we promise we’ll put on a good show.

We will have a brief ceremony – please note that we may not have quite enough seating, so some folks will need to stand. Please give our older guests first dibs on seats!

After the ceremony we will all go upstairs where food will be served in a lounge setting. There will be a wide range of light and heavy appetizers, as well as candy and desserts! All you can eat, and the booze is on us too.

After brief speeches we’ll introduce you to the Happy Pals – this fun, loose New Orleans jazz party band has played legendary Grossmans Tavern every Saturday for nearly half a century. Matt has been a regular since 2007 and took Jessica to see them two weeks after their first date. Since then, the Happy Pals have been an important part of our lives, and we are just so happy they’re bringing their brand of old-timey fun to our wedding. Find out more about the Happy Pals here.

For the rest of the night there will be dancing downstairs and conversations upstairs. Eventually our good friend Andrew Robertson will take over DJ duties to keep the party going until last call.
