FAQs
Question
What’s the dress code for the wedding?
Answer
We’d love for you to dress in semi-formal or cocktail attire (a balance between formal and casual) for our wedding. The wedding is entirely indoors, except for a short walk from the ceremony to the reception space. A coat check will be provided.
Question
Can I take photographs during the 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 photographers 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
Are children invited to the wedding?
Answer
We’ve opted for an adults-only affair to allow everyone to relax and enjoy the celebration. We hope you understand our decision and can arrange childcare for the evening if needed.
Question
What accommodations are available for out-of-town guests?
Answer

Question
Do you have a gift registry?
Answer
As we start on this new journey together, we want to express how much your love and support means to us.

Question
Where can I park?

Cambridge Mill has lots of on-site parking. Vehicles can be left over-night. Please don’t drink and drive! See more information regarding our shuttle service that will be provided below.
Question
Are there any shuttle services available?
Answer
Prior to the ceremony held at 2:30pm, there will be two shuttle departures leaving from Cambridge Hotel and Conference Centre at 1:20pm and 2:00pm. This shuttle can only accommodate 36 people each round, so please advise us on your RSVP if you hope to use this service. Unfortunately, Cambridge Hotel and Conference Centre cannot guarantee early check-ins will be available prior to 3pm but they do provide a “soft check-in” where luggage and bags can be kept inside in a designated safe room. You are welcome to park your vehicles over-night at Cambridge Mill and use the late-night shuttle to get back to the hotel after the reception, and obtain your vehicles in the morning. The late-night shuttle will be available starting at 10:30pm, every 40 minutes, to transport guests back to the Cambridge Hotel and Conference Centre. The last shuttle is at 1:10pm, 10 minutes after the reception ends. Please note: This drop-off location is within walking distance of the Best Western Plus and Hilton Garden Inn.
