Registry and Gift Information

Laurel and Chad are registered with Bed Bath And Beyond. Please keep in mind that they both enjoy owning only what they need and use often. They will be moving frequently in the first years of their marriage and request that anyone who would like to give them a lifesize lawn gnome or a feather patterned tea set consider this.

Shoes and other Attire

(Laurel's sister Acacia)

Please keep in mind:

Shoes

The ceremony and reception will be taking place in a garden and lawn area; we cannot predict how wet the ground will be. There may be periods of indefinite standing, so comfortable shoes should be your priority.

Attire

The males of the wedding party will be wearing black suits. The bridesmaids, however, will not match one another; they will wear dresses which reflect their tastes and make them feel happy. Please follow their example.
