Schedule

Saturday, October 11th, 2025

  • 9am–12:30pm | Decorating, cider-pressing, hanging out

    Everyone is welcome to come to the Dougherty-Goodburn arboretum and gardens (Margie and John’s place) for a casual morning of cider-pressing, making bouquets, cooking, decorating, and hanging out.

  • 12:30–3pm | Getting ready

    Many of us will probably leave to go get ready for the ceremony during this chunk of time, but you’re welcome to keep hanging or do what you like! Maybe you’ll need to go get ready too? Or grab your potluck dish?

  • 3–3:30pm | Arrival & potluck set-up

    We’re having a potluck! Please bring anything you’d like to share. We’ll have wine and beer, so no need to bring beverages, unless you want to bring your own. When you arrive, there will be tables to put your dish on. We can also find cooler space if you need to keep something chilled. It’s a regular potluck!

  • 3:30–4pm | Ceremony

    Ceremony in the yard. Please bring your own chair!

  • 4–5:30pm | Potlucking

    We'll eat all the delicious food we made. Probably have some toasts? 🍞🥂?

  • 5:30pm onward | Reception & hanging out

    Party in the barn! Maybe karaoke? Cake!

The sun will set around 7pm. Maybe we’ll hang out around a fire (perhaps making some more toasts with friends if we're feeling lovey dovey). Or maybe we’ll be dancing! Or maybe there will still be potluck to enjoy. We’re not sure, but excited to be with all the people we love most, doing anything.

Text or call us with any questions. Can’t wait to see you!
