The venue is the Darby House and the address is 801 Darby Creek Drive, Galloway, OH. 43119. The address will take you to a large gate where an attendant will direct you to the ceremony.

Question

What time does the ceremony start?

Answer

The ceremony starts at 4:00p sharp. We ask that you arrive and be in your seat no later than 15 minutes before the ceremony starts. You may arrive between 3:30-3:45pm as it will give you time to park, sign the guest book, and find your seat. If you arrive after the ceremony has already started, you will not be able to be seated and will have to wait until after cocktail hour to enter.

Question

What should I do if I cannot make it?

Answer

You will definitely be missed! If you cannot attend our wedding, please indicate "Will not attend" on your RSVP so we can plan accordingly. If you RSVP'D "attending", but find that you cannot make it, please notify the bride or groom as soon as possible so we are aware.

Question

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We are having an "unplugged" ceremony- no phones or camera use until the reception. The greatest gift you can give us is being fully present as we say "I do." We have hired professionals to capture this moment for us and we promise to share our photos as soon as we receive them. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos/videos as you like.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

We are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. Your invite will be made out to your name and "guest" if a plus one has been given to you. Thank you for understanding!

Answer

We kindly ask that you avoid colors traditionally reserved for the Bride; whites, ivories, and creams.
