Mike and Dineen:    We realize that Washington, DC is a bit of a trek for many of the friends and family we hope to have join us on our special day, and we have done everything we can think of to make it easier for you all. The good news is that the Washington area is gorgeous in late April. The famous cherry blossoms should still be blooming, and the weather is generally warm and mild. The bad news is, there will be some sort of convention in town the weekend of our wedding, so it will be very important to book travel and accommodations early. Because of this, we want you to know what your options are well before the Miss Manners-imposed six weeks prior to the wedding when the actual formal invitations arrive.

The wedding will be Saturday April 29, 2000. The ceremony is at 3 p.m. at Georgetown University's Dahlgren Chapel, and will be performed by the Georgetown Law Center's chaplain, Rev. Alexei Michalenko. The reception follows accross the Potomac at the Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City, in Arlington, Virginia.
