Jen and Thabo Wedding

Photos

2006-10-26T10:44:00.000-07:00

We are going to attempt to collect wedding photos from everyone who is willing to donate, so if you took pictures or video, please send one of us an e-mail with a zip file attached or if the file is huge, just let us know and we will give you an ftp site you can upload to!

Thank You!

2006-10-26T10:41:00.000-07:00

Thank you so much to everyone that came. Almost everyone traveled long distances to be there, and we really appreciate it. We really enjoyed the whole weekend, and it couldn't have been possible without the help that we had from so many people. Our only complaint was that we couldn't spend more time with everyone!

Park Map

2006-10-17T09:56:00.000-07:00

Here is a map of the park. Please not that the little compass has North going mostly down which is kinda weird if you ask me. Also, please ignore the "You are Here" indication, rest assured you are still sitting at home on your computer. Or maybe you are in a cafe on your laptop, or, shockingly enough, at work. Any way you cut it, you probably aren't in front of the map at Doheny with your laptop on plugged in to some WiFi.

Arrival/Departure Times

2006-09-20T10:15:00.000-07:00

If you are flying in, please post your arrival/departure times here, and whether or not you have already rented a car. If you have rented a car maybe you can help take a load of peeps, and if you haven't, we can probably arrange a shuttle, especially if a large group is coming in on the same flight or at similar times.

Registry

2006-09-11T09:14:00.000-07:00

Several people have been asking about a registry. First of all we want to emphasize that we are going non-traditional and as such don't expect any gifts, especially because for many of you, the cost of coming to the wedding will be high. So please don't feel obligated to get anything if you don't feel so moved.

Since we know some of you are thinking, "yeah, whatever" at this point and still want some hints, as a convenience we will try and open some registries.

As of now we have one at target.com and are thinking of refurnishing at ikea.com once we are married (ikea has no registry, but gift cards).

Passenger Van?

2006-09-06T10:07:00.000-07:00

We would be happy to rent a passenger van if it would be helpful to transport people from the airport to the Marina area and around the Marina area. Please post comments on when the most useful time for a van rental would be.

Baptism

2006-09-06T10:04:00.000-07:00

We are also going to be baptised at 7am Oct. 21st at Baby Beach (same area as wedding, Marina Inn, reception etc.) If you are invited to the wedding, that means we would appreciate it if you could make it to the baptism as well...

As always, more information to follow...

Informal!!!!

2006-08-21T22:07:00.000-07:00

Please wear clothes that will allow you to enjoy the beach - comfortable
shoes (including sandals) are encouraged and welcome!

Directions...

2006-08-14T11:23:00.000-07:00

Airport to Doheny State Beach

Airport to Marina Inn

From the Marina Inn to Doheny just turn right on Dana Pt Harbor Dr going east back towards Highway 1, and the park will be on your right!

Also, here is a map of Dana Point showing the surrounding businesses, etc.

Flights

2006-08-14T11:19:00.000-07:00

The closest airpot is Orange County/Santa Ana (airpot code : SNA). A quick check on cheaptickets.com coming from IND to SNA on Oct. 20 and returning Oct. 22 came up with some pretty reasonable tickets, American Airlines had some at $268. Once again, please comment if you find an airline that is having a great airfare sale or something.

We've set a date and a place!

The reception will be held at Doheny State Beach (see directions).
The wedding location may be the same and has yet to be finalized, but will definitely be in the Dana Point area.

Can't wait to see you there!

Welcome!

Love,
Jen and Thabo
