*PROMPTLY!!*

*Please do not be tardy for this truly awesome part of the event. We have worked hard for the service to reflect our long journey of love and commitment and will include many cameos of those dear to us.
*Your Children Are Encouraged To Attend*
Yes, you've got the right wedding. We're sharing mushy love and benevolence with everyone, regardless of age.
There will be a play table and pinata set up in the 'children's corner' for them. And if that's not good enough for the squirmies, there's a playset outside as well as sand and water. But you must keep an eye on your own kids as there will be no sitter service.
**We realize a solemn, 20 minute ceremony is not as compelling for children as it is for adults. We would not be insulted if you removed your progeny once they've lost interest; in fact, we encourage it. Afterward, we look forward to your return at the reception where all can be loud and messy once again!**
Comfy and Casual
This is an afternoon event in a laid back environment. We want you to enjoy the experience without painful blistering and odoriferous sweating. However, we'd caution against muscle tanks and cut-offs. Thank you.
You carnivores will be pleased to know our friend, Jake, is bringing his Willy's BBQ 'round for y'all.

And our politically-correct pals at Costco will add to the bounty.
2 words- Chocolate Fountain!
Of course there will be cake. In fact, the newly married couple plan on serving it up to guests ourselves. Because we just think that much of you!
It's a kegger!
One of the main deciding factors of GG Bathhouse over Gas Works was the option for booze. Well, duh. How about a nice, cold keg of deliciously local Pale Ale? Say we throw in some red and white vino and even Bubbly for toasts? You're certainly welcome to bring your own special bottle if none of the above appeal to you.
Liquor store #187* is even on the way!

Of course, there will also be non-alcoholic options (what the rest of us call 'mixers') for the youngins' and folks not interested in the Devil's Poison.
*closed holidays; plan accordingly
Or, what will the weather do?
Picture, if you will, a first print run of the invitations sans a crucial 'h', reading instead: Golden Goldens Bathouse. When the scanner decides to co-operate, we'll post a copy. Or just give them out as door prizes and favors.
