Wedding Weekend
The weekend centers on Knutson Farm, an outdoor Hill Country setting with rustic garden character and plenty of room to gather. The formal ceremony begins at 4:00 PM on Saturday, June 12, 2027; guests should plan to arrive around 3:30 PM for parking and seating.
Because Dripping Springs is a rural Hill Country area, give yourself extra time, plan transportation before you head out, and choose shoes that can handle grass, gravel, and uneven ground.
Friday, June 11, 2027
For the wedding party, immediate family, and guests invited directly. Exact time and location will be shared as plans are finalized; expect a relaxed Hill Country welcome with dinner, toasts, and a chance to settle into the weekend. Atmosphere: intimate, warm, and conversational. Dress: dressy casual—linen, sundresses, boots, wedges, or a sport coat all work well. Parking/transportation: follow the host instructions when they are sent, and avoid counting on late-night rideshares in Dripping Springs. Bring: your invitation details, a light layer, and comfortable shoes for gravel or outdoor paths.
Saturday, June 12, 2027 · 4:00 PM
The ceremony will be outdoors at Knutson Farm in Dripping Springs. Please arrive by 3:30 PM so you can park, find your seat, and take in the Hill Country setting before the processional begins. Atmosphere: heartfelt, open-air, and garden-rustic. Dress: garden cocktail or dressy outdoor wedding attire; low heels, block heels, boots, or dressy flats are best for grass and uneven ground. Parking/transportation: onsite parking guidance and signs will direct you when you arrive; carpooling is encouraged, and rideshares should be scheduled with care. Bring: sunglasses, sunscreen for arrival time, a light layer for evening, and a water bottle for the drive.
Saturday, June 12, 2027 · Immediately following the ceremony
After the ceremony, guests will move into cocktail hour at Knutson Farm while Claire and Michael take portraits and the evening shifts into dinner. Atmosphere: relaxed garden gathering with drinks, small bites, and time to say hello. Dress: same as the ceremony—polished but outdoor-ready. Parking/transportation: stay onsite and follow venue staff direction as spaces transition. Bring: comfortable shoes, a small bag or jacket you can keep with you, and patience for a relaxed outdoor flow.
Saturday, June 12, 2027 · Evening
The reception will take place at Knutson Farm after cocktail hour, with dinner, toasts, and the kind of food-centered gathering Claire and Michael care about most. Atmosphere: warm, generous, rustic garden dinner that turns into a full dance floor. Dress: garden cocktail is still the guide; consider breathable fabrics for June and a layer once the sun goes down. Parking/transportation: your vehicle will remain onsite if you drive; if you plan to drink, arrange a driver or pre-planned ride. Bring: your appetite, your dancing shoes, and anything you need for an outdoor evening.
Saturday, June 12, 2027 · Late evening
When dinner gives way to the late-night part of the celebration, the music stays up and the formality loosens. Exact timing will depend on the final venue schedule. Atmosphere: joyful, high-energy, and centered on dancing. Dress: no change required, but this is the moment for comfortable shoes. Parking/transportation: confirm your ride before the night begins, since Hill Country pickups can take longer than expected. Bring: a backup pair of flats if you want them, a charged phone, and your best dance-floor stamina.
Sunday, June 13, 2027
A casual farewell brunch will close the weekend for guests invited to join. Exact time and location will be shared once confirmed, with an easy come-as-you-are feel for final hugs before travel home. Atmosphere: relaxed, grateful, and low-key. Dress: casual brunch attire or comfortable travel clothes. Parking/transportation: details will be sent with the final location; leave extra time if you are heading to the airport afterward. Bring: your luggage if needed, coffee money for the road, and a little room for one more meal together.
Hill Country field notes
June in Central Texas can be bright, warm, breezy, or all three within the same hour. We recommend breathable fabrics, sunglasses for arrival, shoes that can handle grass and gravel, and a light layer for later in the evening.
Knutson Farm is in Dripping Springs, where roads can be winding and rideshare availability can be inconsistent. Please build in a cushion for the drive, follow onsite parking signs, and coordinate a safe ride before the reception begins.
The full schedule will be posted closer to the day.
“Arrive early, settle in slowly, and let the Hill Country set the pace for the weekend.”
