Ceremony & Reception
This is still a work in progress, but we wanted to offer guests transparency as they prepare for the wedding.
Immerse Yourself
If you know the bride, you know there is always a theme! For us, this is not just a nod to the Swedish tradition, but a reflection of summer celebrations across many cultures. It’s about embracing the season that hosted our first moments together many years ago. With long, golden days that blossomed into the very reason, we will gather on the weekend of the summer solstice.
One of our first memories together is eating mangoes from Sean’s family tree over the sink, laughing as the juice dripped down our hands, and getting mango fibers stuck in our teeth. It’s a celebration of warmth, connection, and the endless possibilities of summer, shared with those we hold most dear.
We hope you can join us, soak it all in, and know how deeply grateful we are to have you bear witness to the start of this beautiful new chapter in our story.
Date | The Weekend of the Summer Solstice

Dress Code | Aloha Formal
We want you to feel comfortable, confident, and stylish at our wedding. As we celebrate, we encourage our guests to embrace Aloha Formal with relaxed but elegant attire. Think bright colors and aloha prints.
Ladies are welcome to wear mid to long dresses or gowns, and chunky heels are suggested for walking in grassy areas.
Gentlemen can choose a formal aloha shirt or suit. Both perfectly fit the occasion.
We want you to feel elegant and comfortable as you celebrate with us!

As you enter the coconut grove, check in with the guest table to validate parking and receive your welcome packet. This is where RSVPing is extremely important.
