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 the sun sets, we’ll move to the dance floor for live music and a toast to thirty years—with late-night wood-fired pizzas to fuel the festivities well into the evening.

Kindly respond by June 30, 2026. Please note, this is an age 21+ event.

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!

GIFTS

The greatest gift is the opportunity to celebrate together. Casey and Karen kindly request no gifts and look forward to simply sharing this special evening with those they love.
