It’s a hauntingly beautiful affair.

All events will take place in Cologne & Bergheim, where the wedding venue is located.

Kaila and James will be arriving in Germany the weekend before (Saturday, October 25th) the wedding. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

There are suggested activities on the website to help you plan out your free time. We want to make sure we can spend as much time together with you as possible in the days before the wedding, but we do want you to be able to plan out anything you’d like to do while you’re in the city.

Any details not yet provided are purely due to it being too early still, these times and locations will be updated and provided the closer we get to the wedding.

See here for more info.
