To avoid the bride's parents missing out on their daughter's wedding, the families of the bride and groom ingeniously came up with a solution - they decided to hold the wedding in Blaine, Washington, near the Peace Arch, a landmark on the US-Canada border. The park surrounding the Peace Arch is considered a neutral location where Americans and Canadians can interact without having to go through immigration.

The wedding ceremony will take place in The American Kitchen, a building located in the park's southern section. The bride's parents and other family members will enter from the Canadian side, where they will be on a Canadian visa. They will be able to travel as far as the parking lot on the American side without requiring US visas.
