We Are Registered

Many of you have been asking about where we are registered for our wedding.

The answer:

Sur La Table, Amazon.com, and Target.

And if you purchase us a gift from any of these fine retailers we will be very grateful. However, we will also be grateful if you give the gift of family recipes, gift certificates, or simply your presence at our wedding.

And since we're returning to Seattle by plane following the wedding we're going to have to carry any presents with us so we'd be even more grateful if presents arrived by mail.

Our address is 6049 6th Ave. NW Seattle, WA 98107.

We hope all of you are doing well and can't wait to see you.

Thursday Night Festivities

Hello wedding revelers,

First of all, we are so excited and honored that so many of you are making the long trip down to the Lone Star state. Can’t wait to see everyone!
Here’s some info about the Thursday night festivities. My lovely best friend and maid of honor Erin did some research and found the cheapest hotel near where we’re going out that night and has reserved a block of rooms under the Weldon/Nickum party at the Holiday Inn. Here's the hotel website: http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ex/1/en/hotel/ftwla/transportation?start=1&rpb=hotel&crUrl=/h/d/ex/1en/hotelsearchresults It’s pricier than in Longview for sure, $149 for 2 double beds, but if we go 4 to a room of course it’s not too bad. THEY WILL ONLY HOLD THE ROOMS UNTIL MAY 25. The hotel has a free shuttle that can take us to Billy Bob’s and to downtown if we choose.
Here’s what we’re thinking for that evening:
Lots of people are coming at lots of different times, but generally most will be here by 6 or 7 that afternoon. Those coming later can take advantage of the free shuttle to meet up. We’re definitely going to Billy Bob’s, but we’ll probably head over to the downtown area at some point because Billy Bob’s will be fun for a while but probably not the whole night. We’ll probably need to take a 10 minute cab ride from Billy Bob’s into downtown. We’ll try to find a fun dinner place too. We’re eating barbeque on Friday night and authentic Mexican at the wedding; so maybe we’ll try to eat something different Thursday night. Tex-Mex? Burgers? If you feel any strong opinions on this matter, please voice them.
As far as the next day goes, do what you like. Ryan and I will probably head back to Longview pretty early, but feel free to sleep in, have brunch somewhere, do some cruising around the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. Longview is about 2 hours from Dallas, 2 ½ from Ft. Worth. The rehearsal dinner will be in the early evening Friday (7 or 8, not sure yet, you’re all invited), we’ll provide directions to that location later on.
I’m sure that we’ve forgotten or overlooked at least several key details, so please PLEASE, write/call/text any questions or clarifications you have.

See you soon!!!!!!

Paige & Ryan
