we'll be gathering around 9 pm at the crunkleton on west franklin street for cocktails and uncomfortably long hugs so come by whenever you get into town or finish dinner, whichever's first...

do whatever you want on saturday (some suggestions for food and fun on the website already)! bets will be primping and hanging out at her parents house (324 west university drive) so come by to smush miller or for some light lunch and something bubbly. [yes! please actually come, i want to see you] bryce will be finding something chilled to sip on while watching some tarheel basketball (likely at he's not here) so text him if you want to meet up [336.602.8935].
6:30 pm

7:30 pm
the wedding celebration is black tie encouraged.
drinks, dinner and do not plan to sit (aka lots of dance floor action).
9:00 am - 10:30 am
maybe just wash your face at least?
drag yourself out of bed for a bloody mary and a bacon egg and cheese biscuit to get you back to "normal." take it to go if you've gotta run to the airport but just come and hug us one more time, ok?

chapel hill is very walkable but you may want a rental car if you plan on exploring hither and yon.
the carolina inn is such a special place for the fox family...check out this 2012 article featuring your favorite MOB, missy julian fox. [https://www.ourstate.com/the-carolina-inn/]
stop by our beautiful third generation owned and operated family business on east franklin street and i'm not saying you have to buy the entire store, just most of it. make sure to check out our history wall in the back for awkward family photos of bets and misso with her fire early 90's hair. bart will be in the store on friday so go say hi! on saturday, he'll be busy being a BOB (brother of the bride, come on!) but his team will take great care of you if you need anything last minute.
there's a UNC men's basketball home game on Saturday at 12 pm vs. Syracuse. for tickets, check out the official UNC Athletics link at www.goheels.com or take a peek at Stub Hub/Seat Geek for additional options.
morning coffee spots: perennial (west franklin street), grey squirrel (carrboro), epilogue (east franklin street) lunch spots: sutton's drug store (the best milkshakes, cheeseburgers and cherry cokes for miles), al's burgers (yes, you guessed it, more burgers), brandwein's bagels (breakfast and lunch bagel sandwiches), purple bowl (acai and other "hippie california things" as the reviews say), time out chicken (all the southern things).
A few of our favorite spots around town for dinner... Bluebird [quick uber away, francais s'il vois plait bistro] Tesoro [downtown carrboro, tiny but divine spot for pasta] Hawthorne and Wood [a quick uber away and a bit more fance] 411 West [downtown chapel hill, a misso and mikey tradition, we have pizzettes from here every monday eve] Armadillo Grill [downtown carrboro, queso for days] Akai Hana [downtown carrboro, best sushi and owned by Lee Smith, one of my fav writers]
Hot off the presses...
festivities will begin friday night with a rehearsal dinner for some. for all, we'll be gathering for drinks and high fives at a tbd location. finally, the gang's all invited to a brunch on sunday morning to rehash the evening before you head home.
the wedding is "black tie encouraged" [i know, right]. everything else is casual/dress to impress depending on how extra you are.
aside from a couple extra special tiny members of our family, kiddies will not be included in any of the events during the weekend. love you and thanks for understanding!
