Please RSVP for this event by April 30!

While we will have already gotten married a few months earlier on the Mediterranean cruise, we know many who would have liked to be part of the ceremony were not able to attend.

As such, we are thrilled to be hosting a casual local reception for our family and friends to join us in celebrating our nuptials!

Whether you can make it for the relaxed afternoon in the park, the evening in the zoo, or both, we hope to see you all for this day filled with food, fun, games, and lots of animals!

Date: Saturday, July 18, 2026

Time: 1:00pm to 8:30pm

Location: Roger Williams Park - Providence, RI

This is meant to be a celebration, and we see no better way to bring that to life than to gather all of the people we love in an environment that encourages exploration and relaxation.

Ditch the trappings of a typical wedding. Leave your fancy clothes and dancing shoes at home. Throw on your shorts and t-shits, capri pants and polo shirts, or whatever your favorite comfy outdoor summer outfit is and kick back to have some fun with us!

Take time in the afternoon to walk the grounds of the beautiful Roger Williams Park!

We'll provide the food, drinks, and a home base at the Casino for you to leave your belongs and come cool off. You take the afternoon to visit with us while also exploring all that the park has to offer! We are happy to provide recommendations and share some of our favorite spots in the park, or open the map, point at a spot and head off. Whether venturing through the many gardens, taking a ride on the carrousel, walking the trails, paddling a swan boat on the lake, or just kicking back and enjoying the scenery at the Temple to Music, you can't go wrong anywhere in this gem of a public park!

Afterwards, spend the evening wandering the many exhibits of the Roger Williams Park Zoo!

We'll have the entire zoo to ourselves for three hours, so this is your chance to get up close to all the amazing animals on exhibit. We'll once again provide a base in the middle of the space for you to relax with some food and drinks while providing the chance for you to enjoy the furry (and not so furry) creatures in the many habitats scattered throughout the zoo. Rumor has it you may even get to pet an armadillo...

After enjoying the day and night around the "jewel of providence", we'll all gather back together to raise a glass in celebration of the next chapter in our lives!
