Dear Family and Friends,
Last minute updates:
The good news is there no rain in the forecast! The dinner is outside and note that after the high of 71 during the day the temperature is supposed to drop to 54 at some point.
The ceremony has a classical quartet, but the dinner and dancing will be hosted by Spencer Bates, one of DC’s top piano bar performers. Get your requests ready!
Finally out of town guests who we’ve invited to stop in at our open house on Sunday morning from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. can take our shuttle bus from the two wedding hotels, the Hilton and the Normandy that will run every 20 minutes. Note that the Hilton has two entrances. Our shuttle leaves from the lower entrance NOT the round driveway above. If you are coming to the open house it’s tough to park in our neighborhood.
Martha and Ira
We are thrilled to welcome you to our wedding web site.
The wedding will take place in a lovely historic mansion in the Dupont Circle area of Washington, D.C. We hope you will join us for the wedding ceremony, dinner, and dancing to celebrate our life together.
As we mentioned in the invitation, we will have valet parking at the wedding location and the location is a short walk from the wedding hotels below. It’s a pretty uphill walk and taxis may be easier.
Added July 22: In response to several questions, we envision the dress that night as being jackets, ties optional. It could be warm.
For those coming from afar, you can make a reservation at special rates at either of two hotels for Friday, September 8th through Sunday, September 10th by calling one of the hotels and asking for the Kanter/Teinowitz block.
