FAQs

Question

How do I get to the wedding?

Answer

Transportation will be provided for guests to and from our wedding. Ubers are limited in the area so we recommend you utilize our shuttles! Shuttles will depart at 4:30pm. Please do not miss the bus! We have three pickup locations: -University Baptist Church at 1223 W. Main Street (for our Draftsman & Marriott guests. Please note the busses will not stop at these individual hotels!) -Fairfield Inn -Boars Head Resort (*bus departs at 4:40) Shuttles departing the ceremony will leave at both 10:00pm and 11:30pm - you may get on either! The late bus will make a stop on the corner for those attending the after party. There is free parking available at the venue if you wish to drive. If you have issues locating the bus, please text our wedding coordinator Hannah at (540) 570-5077.

Question

How do I get to the welcome party?

Answer

The Colonnade Club is a historic venue at the University, located in Pavilion VII on "The Lawn." The easiest way to get there is to walk to the Rotunda via University Ave. You'll find The Lawn on the opposite side of the Rotunda. If you come from this direction, Pavilion VII is halfway down the right side (there will be a sign, too!). If you prefer to Uber, we recommend you enter either the Rotunda or Garrett Hall as your drop off destination. The latter will drop you just outside the south side of The Lawn - once you walk onto The Lawn (looks like a big courtyard), the entrance will be halfway up on the left side. Parking is limited, so please keep that in mind if you'd like to drive. If you need assistance finding the Colonnade Club, please text our wedding coordinator Hannah at (540) 570-5077.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony & reception?

Answer

There is parking at the ceremony if you prefer to drive, though we will have free shuttles!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

As much as we'd love to expand the party, we unfortunately do not have space for everyone. We regretfully ask our guests to please not bring a plus one unless they are specifically named on the invitation. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We kindly ask that you leave your little ones at home on Friday & Saturday. If you'd like a recommendation for a sitter in Charlottesville, please let us know!

Question

Is there a dress code for the weekend?

Answer

For Saturday we recommend suits & ties for men, semiformal dresses for women. Portions of our evening will be outside, so please dress accordingly - and we suggest block heels for the grass! Our Welcome Party on Friday will be dressy casual. We'll be outside there, too, so please check the forecast!

Question

Do I need to select a dinner entrée in advance?

Answer

Nope! We will have options for you to choose from at dinner. Please share any dietary restrictions when you submit your RSVP.

Question

I'm staying until Monday - are there other activities planned for Sunday?

Answer

We've planned a casual gathering at Three Notch'd Brewery at 1pm and would love to see you there! You can also visit our "things to do" page to see some suggested day trips, restaurants & other local activities.
