Celebrating Thirty Years with Casey & Karen!
You are warmly invited to raise a glass and celebrate thirty years of love, laughter, and partnership with Casey & Karen O’Keefe on Saturday, August 1, 2026. Join us at their beautiful home on Lake Whatcom in Bellingham for an evening of locally sourced hors d'oeuvres, craft cocktails, and a festive lakeside summer celebration. As evening falls, enjoy live music and dancing as we honor three decades of marriage.
Kindly respond by June 30, 2026.
ATTIRE
We are celebrating in style! Cocktail attire is requested for the evening, but please keep in mind that this is a backyard celebration on grass. To stay comfortable and safe while mingling, women are encouraged to wear flats or wedges instead of heels. Dress to impress while keeping the outdoor setting in mind — we can’t wait to see everyone looking festive and fabulous!
EVENT PARKING
We are so grateful to welcome you to the O’Keefe home. Because there is no onsite parking available, we will be providing a convenient shuttle service to and from a nearby parking area. Parking will be located just past The Fork At Agate Bay restaurant at 2552 Northshore Road, in the grass field on the left before the driveway. Shuttle details and timing are still being finalized, and we will update this webpage as the event date approaches. Please refer to the map below for both the home location and the designated parking area. We appreciate your flexibility and can’t wait to celebrate together!
