Attire: (OPTIONAL) Western Glam
Join us at Neon Boots, a classic Texas dancehall and saloon, for an evening of barbecue, beer, and dancing to kick off our wedding weekend. Don't worry if you don't know how to two-step: the Texas A&M Aggie Wranglers will be there teaching the group some line dancing and two-step moves throughout the night! If we're lucky, they may even perform for us :)
Bring your dancing boots and get ready to two-step the night away - and if you're feeling up to it, join in on the **optional** Western Glam dress code! (Amanda and Ken will definitely be participating!)
