What about wedding presents?

The biggest gift for us is your presence, and we really mean that! Our default preference is no gifts. If you do want to donate to a charity in our name, here are a few we support:

• Brooklyn Public Library - Andreas spent his childhood with his head buried in books at the library, leading him to be the bookish adult we all know and love. As Brooklyn residents (until recently!), we appreciate support BPL in its mission to provide free education and access to literature.

• Environmental Defense Fund - EDF plays an important role in preserving nature and combating climate change.

• Doctors Without Borders - DWB goes where help is most needed and we can’t be ourselves.

When do I need to arrive?

The most important wedding festivities will be on March 24th, but we’ll be celebrating on the days around then. See the activities outline here.

If you are arriving earlier than the 23rd, let us know! We’ll be around and would love to see you // get some more friend time in.

What’s the schedule?

The full schedule will be posted closer in time to the wedding, but you can read the highlights now on The Deets page!

What do I need to do?

We know there are some logistics flying around, so we’ve written a little guest guide here.

What should I wear?

We’re getting married in the mountains and the dress code is formal. We’d love to see some glitz and glam, whether that’s the addition of a (faux) fur coat or a full velvet ‘fit.

A few things to note:

• Rachel would ask that women avoid full black fits (you’ll find out why later :))

• The ceremony will be outside (it’s a spring wedding after all!), so we’d suggest dressing warm. There will of course be blankets on offer in case you get a little chilly. We’ll also keep the ceremony short (read: less than 30 minutes), so we promise you won’t freeze!

• If you opt to ski between the ceremony and apres ski/reception, you’ll be able to give a bag to our wedding planner with your reception outfit/any other things you may need after skiing.

• For the night before, we’re doing optional Dirndl and Lederhosen - if you don’t already have these/don’t want to buy - we warmly welcome more casual “boho” style dress (see the “Südtiroler Abend” mood board below for both options!
