The plans! The schedule of events!
This is what it's all about! All the planning and the anxiousness and
then more planning and...well...here's what we're doing:
 |
Friday, June 6th
 |
6:00 pm - 9:00 pm: Wedding Rehearsal
and Dinner (BBQ!) for the bridal
party. |
 |
6:00 pm - 9:00 pm: Are you from out-of-town and
not involved in the rehearsal? Live it up! In addition to our
Kansas
City page and suggestions/brochures from the hotel, we will also have some additional recommendations. Feel free to use our
hospitality suites to gather! Please plan to enjoy the city!
|
 |
9:00 pm - witching hour: After the
rehearsal, there may be a few people who plan to catch some of the
nightlife (casinos, jazz, Plaza, etc). |
|
 |
Saturday, June 7th
 |
10:00 am - 5:00 pm: Some of our
family & friends will be setting up in the reception hall on Saturday
morning/early afternoon. |
 |
10:30 am - 2:30 pm: The girls in the
bridal party begin their work at Amy & Kevin's. |
 |
2:30 pm: Bridal party photos at Amy
& Kevin's. |
 |
3:00 pm: A trolley will pick up the
bridal party at Amy & Kevin's. |
 |
3:30 pm - 5:00 pm: Bridal party
photos at the Nelson-Atkins Museum. |
 |
5:00 pm - 5:30 pm: Bridal party
photos at the church (we're photographers, we like photos...). |
 |
6:00 pm: Guests arrive at
the church. Click The Wedding
button (on the left) for a map and directions. |
 |
6:15 pm - 7:15 pm: Wedding mass. |
 |
7:30 pm - 8:30 pm: A jazz pianist
will be playing at the reception and cocktails and cold hors d’oveures will be available. When the bridal
party arrives and is announced, the hot hors d’oveures will be served. The
wine at each table was chosen by Jessy's parents because of a special
meaning (For instance, African wine because of Jessy's safari, etc.). |
 |
8:30 pm: Cake cutting! |
 |
8:30 pm - 12:30 am: Formal dances
and a special tribute from Jessy & Bobby to the friends & good times that
have been part of bringing them to this day. After that, it's the DJ and an open dance floor until 12:45! |
 |
9:30 pm - 1:00 am: Throughout the
evening, there will be transportation from the reception to the Adam's
Mark hotel, so the optimal situation
would be for people to carpool from the hotel as much as possible. This
way if someone wants/needs to leave, they can take advantage of the
transportation & not wait on someone else to leave. The hotel will be
providing shuttles at 9:30, 10:00 & 10:30. After that a limo will be
arriving at 11:00 and will shuttle people back & forth as often as is
requested until 1:00 am. |
 |
1:00 am: We don't have to go
home, but we can't stay here! :) Well, not exactly. We
can't stay at the reception hall, but...If there is sufficient
business, the bar at the Adam's Mark hotel will stay open later! |
 |
3:00 am: No more liquor sales in
Kansas City for the night! |
|
 |
Sunday, June 8th
 |
Late
Morning: Sunday morning Mike & Carol Mathews will be
giving a brunch for the Mathews side of the family that are here from out of state. Bobby
& Jessy will only have a limited opportunity before the wedding to really visit with this
side of
family, so this was a great opportunity for them to spend some time with
them before leaving on their honeymoon. |
 |
Afternoon/Evening:
Wide open. We plan to see how the ball bounces today.
|
|
Everyone is most welcome to arrive earlier in the
week to enjoy the sights and sounds of
Kansas City. We already know some of the
family is planning to spend an extra day or two here, which we are excited about and
we're sure everyone will enjoy KC! If you're coming in earlier
in the week or
staying after the wedding, we'd love to see you!!

Many out of town visitors will be staying at the Adam's
Mark hotel. As an added convenience, we have booked two hospitality suites at the Adam's Mark
for Friday & Saturday! We hope this will provide a comfortable,
convenient place for the out-of-towners
to socialize, have munchies, relax, and gather. The hotel also includes an
indoor pool, an outdoor pool, a sauna, childcare, fitness center, and
Internet access. Complimentary shuttle service
is available to points within a 10-mile radius, including downtown Kansas
City.
If you're reserving a room at
the Adam's Mark, ask for the 'Mathews wedding' room block to receive special pricing!
