Ceremony
2:30pm, Matthaei Botanical Gardens
1800 North Dixboro Road, Ann Arbor, MI 48105 Map
The ceremony will be outdoors (weather permitting) on grass in the Perennial and Rose Garden. In case of rain, the ceremony will be moved indoors at the same location. We want everyone to be comfortable, so please consider the outdoor venue when getting ready. Although the average high for mid-September in Ann Arbor is 75F/24C, mother nature can be unpredictable. Please check the weather forecast when deciding what to wear. If you burn easily, please consider wearing sunscreen. Ladies may wish to avoid high heels as they can sink in the grass (not to mention dancing at the reception!). Parking is free, and guests are welcome to explore the conservatory and gardens at no charge.
Reception
4pm, Dahlmann Campus Inn
