The Wedding will take place at Fearrington House, an award winning restaurant featuring elegant dining.
Located on the site of an 18th century dairy farm, just outside Chapel Hill, Fearrington Village is a growing community numbering over 1500 residents. Fearrington Villge includes unique shops, restaurants, beautiful gardens, and a world class country inn.
The wedding will take place in the beautiful gardens of this historic house, which now serves as the Restaurant. The reception will take place on the West Terrace of the restaurant under a pavillion. Since both ceremony and the reception will be outside, we recommend you plan accordingly when choosing your clothing for the event.*

Reception entertainment will be provided by The Countdown Quartet
The Countdown Quartet is:
Dave Wright - lead vocals, trombone, keyboards
Steve Grothmann - upright and electric basses, vocals
Daniel Hall - drums
Peter Lamb - tenor and soprano saxes, vocals
Randolph Mills - alto and tenor saxes
Raleigh , North Carolina's Countdown Quartet plays jazz and old-style R&B for your enjoyment. The CDQ does original music, standards, and not-so standards. You might hear snatches of Professor Longhair, Ellington, the Stax Records sound, Meters, Hank Williams, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Sonny Rollins, or James Brown. Louis Armstrong is King, Ray Charles is Prime Minister, Mingus is the jester. The only other place you're likely to find a lineup anything like this group's (two saxes, trombone, keys, bass, drums, and vocals) is New Orleans, and while the CDQ is certainly indebted to the Crescent City for inspiration, the group's North Carolina roots reach back to Dave Wright's electric guitar-playing grandmother.*
