What is this?

They're doing another year! Help us get ahead of this whole 2026 thing at our fourth annual New Year's Eve party. Witness Abby optimize crafts per hour while Scott orchestrates a carefully choreographed ball drop.

We're looking forward to again hosting a mix of local and far-flung friends.

We'll be super cozy with sleeping options ranging from spacious guest bedroom to dungeon basement. We'll do our best to make everyone as comfortable as possible (RSVP ASAP for priority! No need to mention you only received this invite in mid-December!) but there is also a small motel a short walk from the house.

For our local Buffalo folks, join us anytime during the festivities or just come by for the party on The Eve. Friends/partners/guests welcome!

Homework?

We have two beloved traditions that are best enjoyed with some light preparation. The first is simple, send us 4-15 pictures from your year so you can make a scrapbook page! The second is also simple, submit your top 5 songs (be honest!) for our yearly review game of all our favorite music (compiled by Peter).

In short, we recommend these three things:

1. RSVP to rsvp@abbyandscott.party
2. Send songs to songs@abbyandscott.party
3. Send photos to rsvp@abbyandscott.party
