We’re Doing a Ritual

We’re getting married!

After 10 wonderfully chaotic years together (and almost twice that many creative collaborations), we’re gathering our community together and making it official. And you’re invited!

Date: June 8th-9th, 2025

Time: 7:30pm-7am

Location: The Pond House, 5143 36 Line, Sebringville, Ontario, n0k 1x0

Just outside of Stratford, Ontario (approximately 14 km)

Accommodations: We encourage folks to bring tents, and crash on site. We will also be offering a couple of shuttles to and from Stratford, for folks who book hotels in town (exact schedule TBD)

We recommend booking ASAP, as the event takes place approximately 2 weeks after the Festival season opening. If you need support or alternative accommodations, please let us know.

Some Suggested Accommodation Bookings:

The Old Rectory https://www.oldrectorystratford.com/

Arden Park Best Western https://www.bestwestern.com/en_US/book/hotel-rooms.66122.html?iata=00171880&ssob=BLBWI0004G&cid=BLBWI0004G:google:gmb:66122

To Bring:

Your sweet selves! We asking folks not to bring physical gifts for us. Instead, please bring a song, a poem, a memory or blessing for the ritual. Also open to food offerings for the table or the faeries (just please let us know what you’re thinking of in advance).

We’re also asking folks to bring flower offerings (especially ditch lilies, shown on the background of this page). Don’t spend money on this, we’re looking for the wild things you encounter!

Dress Code:

There is no formal dress code for the ritual, but we have two main suggestions:

  1. Come in costume as a favourite mythical/fantastical being

  2. Come in something evoking black tie, but that you’re willing or excited to get messy
