We did it!

Hooray! The wedding is over, the honeymoon took place, and now its back to life as usual as husband and wife.

Thank you to everyone - from the folks who helped out so much setting up, to the people who reassured us that we looked beautiful, to the folks who ate so much of the food :D....

It was a wonderful evening and it gave us a lifetime of memories - please let us know if you need anything from us....

Love,
The Newlyweds.

Two Weeks Left!

Hello everyone! We're down to the wire!

The hotel block rate no longer applies, but if you want to use the Shuttle for to-from transportation, you'll need to make sure you're staying at the same hotel. Otherwise, you're on your own!

(If you plan to stay somewhere else please let Warren or I know, so we can make sure you get good maps and directions!)

And just for old times sake: some updated FAQs!

When/Where:Friday, 9/18/09 in Austin (7:30pm) at Grandma's house on Mt. Bonnell.

**Reminder: The shuttle will pick up hotel guests at 7:15 sharp!**

What to wear:Whatever you want! The bride will be barefoot and the groom will be in a tophat. My only advice as the bride: Wear whatever makes you feel foxy!

What hotel should I stay at?We reserved a block of rooms Thursday and Friday night at the Townplace Suites Austin Northwest ( a Marriott property). Remember: you must say it's for the Hodum/Beall wedding and book your room before Aug 27th to get the awesome block rate, and you must be at this hotel at 7:15 the night of the wedding if you want to use the shuttle.

What should I expect?This wedding isn't going to be like many others. Really this is a fantastic party we will just *happen* to get married at, with great food, good music and the people we care about most. There won't be an aisle or lots of seating - think more cocktail party and less formal church wedding.

Are my kids invited? I don't see their names on the invite...As much as we love to spend time with all of the kids we know and are related to, we aren't able to accommodate them at our wedding. (This includes infants and toddlers.) All Guests must be at least 18 years of age. We appreciate you honoring this request and understand if it means you will be unable to attend.

Are you guys registered anywhere?No, we're not. We already have everything we could need, but thank you for thinking of us! (Not that we'd turn any gift away...)

Who should I contact for more info:deanneh@gmail.com or warrenbeall@gmail.com


PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let us know if you have any questions or need anything - we're getting super excited and want all of you to have as good a time as we will....

HOTEL TRANSPORTATION: Night of only

Hello!

For all of our guests staying at Townplace Suites, we have hired J&G CityWide Express to shuttle guests back and forth between the hotel and the wedding site that evening.

The shuttle will pick you up at the hotel at 7:15pm and will bring you to the wedding, ready for the start time of 7:30. It will be available through the evening until the final shuttle will leave just after 11pm. (FYI: the shuttle will only run between the hotel and the wedding site.)

And as a final reminder: the special Hodum/Beall wedding rate is only available for Thursday and Friday night, and only if you book your room(s) prior to August 27th!
