Question
Where is the ceremony located?
Answer
Our wedding day celebration will be at The Gardens at Heather Farms. When you arrive you may park in the lot right as you turn in; from there you'll want to head down the ramp/walkway to the left of the entrance, making your way all the way down to the Rose Garden Gazebo. We will have a welcome table and staff to help guide your way.
Question
Can I take photos during your ceremony?
Answer
While we love that you want to capture our special moments, we kindly request an unplugged ceremony to allow everyone to be fully present and immersed in the experience. Our professional photographer will be capturing all the highlights, and we'll share the photos with you afterwards. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in creating a distraction-free environment for our ceremony.
Question
What should I wear, what will the weather be like?
Answer
We are excited for a warm sunny June celebration, with weather historically around 80 degrees in the day. We suggest Semi-Casual Summer Attire... summer and maxi dresses or flowy blouses for the ladies, collared and button up shirts and khakis or slacks for the fellas. The ceremony will have some seating on the lawn, and you will be moving through the paved garden as the day progresses, so comfortable footwear is recommended. Flats or a chunky heel for the ladies may be most comfortable.
Question
What if I have a food allergy?
Answer
We will be serving various styles and types of food between our cocktail hour and dinner spread, we hope to have something for everyone to enjoy; however if you have an allergy we should be mindful of, do please be sure to let us know.
