Wedding Day Schedule
3:00 PM – Guest Arrival & Welcome Drinks
Guests begin arriving and are welcomed into the ballroom. The bar will be open, so feel free to grab a drink and relax as everyone gathers.
Ben and Aaron will be there to greet you and help guide guests to their seats.
3:30 PM – Wedding Ceremony
Kate and Robert say “I do” surrounded by friends and family in the beautiful ballroom.
4:00 PM – Cocktail Celebration Begins
Immediately following the ceremony, guests are invited to enjoy cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and music while the wedding party takes photos.
This will be a cocktail style reception, meaning food will be available throughout the evening rather than a formal sit-down dinner. Guests are free to mingle, relax, and celebrate as the evening unfolds.
Later in the evening we will enjoy:
🥂 A few words and toasts
💃 Our first dance
🎉 Music, dancing, and celebration
We’re Getting Married
On April 12, Kate & Robert begin a new chapter surrounded by the people who mean the most to us.
A wedding is not just a celebration. It is a promise. It is family. It is love that has grown strong enough to gather everyone in one room and say, “This is our forever.”
At the heart of this day is Kate, her joy, her warmth, her love for family, and the beautiful life we are building together.
There is something quietly magical about bringing two lives together. Not the kind of magic you see on a stage, but the kind that grows through time, patience, laughter, and love.
We will stand before you, say our vows, and then celebrate in the way that feels most like us, with music, incredible food, and the people who have shaped our story.
This day is about love that is steady and true.
It is about blending families, honouring where we have been, and stepping forward together.
We cannot wait to celebrate with you.

Your Presence IS the Gift
Having you with us on April 12 is truly the greatest gift we could receive.
We do not need things. What we value most is time. Time around a table. Time in conversation. Time laughing a little too long into the evening. Time that turns into memories.
If you feel moved to give something, we would love to redeem one simple promise within the year ahead:
Dinner on you. Your place or ours.
A relaxed evening. Good food. Real conversation.
If you prefer to mark the occasion with a traditional gift, please know it is completely optional and never expected.
Your presence is more than enough.
With love,
Kate & Robert
Love does not follow a timeline. It arrives when it is ready.
We Cannot Wait to Celebrate With You
This day means everything to us.
We are so grateful to have you in our lives and even more grateful that you will be there as we begin this next chapter together.
If you need to reach us for any reason, please feel free.
