Schedule

We are so excited to celebrate the start of our new chapter with our family and friends! Our goal is to maximize the amount of time we get to spend having fun outside with the people we love, so we have fun events scheduled throughout the weekend.

The venue is entirely ours for the weekend, so BMBR will be open to gather throughout the day and between events for those staying onsite or offsite. We’ll have optional activities in the morning and early afternoon, so feel free to drop in at your leisure! We’ll provide additional details of morning and early afternoon activities closer to the weekend

Note: All events are taking place at Brown Mountain Beach Resort, which is located at 6785 Brown Mountain Beach Rd, Lenoir, NC 28645. There is very limited cell service at and near the venue, so please set your GPS before approaching!

Google Maps currently shows that Brown Mountain Beach Road is closed and suggests a much longer route than necessary, but the road is and will be open! The drive time is 1.5 hours from the Charlotte airport and you can use Waze to see the most direct route.
