FAQs

Question

Where will the ceremony and reception be held?

Answer

The wedding will take place at Strong Mansion on Sugarloaf Mountain. The ceremony and cocktail hour will take place outdoors. The reception will follow in a tent on the same property.

Question

Have you reserved rooms at one or more hotels or do you have recommended places to stay?

Answer

Yes! Please visit our travel page for more information on hotel blocks and recommendations for accommodations.

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

Yes, there will be shuttles to & from Strong Mansion. We STRONGLY recommend taking shuttle as Ubers/Lyfts to/from Sugarloaf Mountain can be very tricky. Shuttle pick up and drop offs will take place at the following two locations: TBD (Downtown Frederick) and Hilton Garden Inn (there are a few hotels within this parking lot, designated shuttle pickup infront of Hilton Garden). More information on specific shuttle times will be provided on this site closer to the wedding.

Question

Is parking available at the venue?

Answer

Yes, there will be parking available on-site for anyone planning on driving. There will be an attendant directing cars to designated parking areas upon arrival. We recommend arriving a little early to ensure plenty of time for parking and getting to the ceremony. If you require special assistance (such as a drop-off or help with mobility), please let the parking attendant know upon arrival. They will be happy to assist and direct you to the closest parking or drop-off point for convenience and comfort.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

The dress code for our wedding is garden party formal. Ladies can wear floor-length, tea-length, or midi formal dresses. Gentlemen should wear a suit and tie. Please note that late August in Maryland can be hot. The ceremony and cocktail hour will be outdoors, shoes appropriate for walking on grass & uneven terrain are encouraged. We want everyone to feel stylish yet comfortable & ready to get down on the dance floor!

Question

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We ask that you refrain from taking photos during the ceremony to allow our professional photographer to capture the moment. Feel free to take as many photos as you like during the reception!

Question
