Question
Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?
Answer
Yes! Ceremony and reception will be held at the same place and parking is FREE on wedding day. Here are parking instructions from our venue: Park in the gravel parking lot adjacent to the building. Park Tavern purchases parking vouchers for event guests to be used for complimentary self-parking. A parking attendant shall be staffed to issue parking vouchers to guests for this duration ONLY: Two hours prior to scheduled event start time (so 4 p.m. on 3/25) until 45 minutes after scheduled event start time (6:45 p.m.). Vendors and/or guests arriving before or after this time frame shall be responsible for paying for their own self- parking using one of the pay machines located in the gravel lot. The parking voucher must be placed on the dashboard of the vehicle. Any vehicle that parks in the gravel parking lot without a voucher on their dashboard from either the parking lot attendant or pay machine will be booted.
