While we would love for all guests to attend our wedding, we recognize that, for some folks on the East Coast and in Montreal, this option isn’t practical. If you find yourself in that category, please come celebrate with us on September 20, 2014*. The festivities will take place at the Home of Bill and Kathy Barz (50 Shirley Street, Wilbraham, MA 01095). The party will begin around 3 p.m. in the afternoon. A brief ceremony in honor of the newlyweds will take place between 4 and 4:30 p.m. Dinner will be served after the ceremony followed by toasts, cake, and dancing.

Garden party attire is encouraged, and children are welcome. There is a swimming pool in the backyard that will be open, and guests hoping to take advantage of the pool may arrive early if they check in advance with Bill or Kathy.

Weather in Western Mass. in September can be quite warm, but it can also be a cool or even rainy time of year. Please bring a jacket or sweater in case the weather is less agreeable. The party will take place rain or shine.

*A certain bride’s 30th birthday. Festivities will reflect both occasions.
