FAQs
Question
How will the ceremony at the waterfall go?
Answer
The ceremony will be held at Taughannock State Park at the base of the falls at the end of Gorge Trail at 1pm. The walk on Gorge Trail to the waterfall is about a mile long, which takes approximately 30 minutes give or take. We are asking those that are able to and planning on being present to arrive at the parking lot between 11:30-11:45am. From there Nate, the groomsmen, and Ashlin's Grandfather who is officiating the wedding will start the walk by 11:45am. All guests are asked to start the walk after them, by 12pm at the latest. The bridesmaids will start walking after that by 12:10pm. Lastly, Ashlin and her Father will start walking at 12:20pm. The groomsmen, bridesmaids and family will help with instructions on where guests should stand as the area fills in!
Question
Will there be chairs?
Answer
Please keep in mind that there will be no chairs, since the ceremony is held at a State Park and the State Park asks that the ceremony is about 30 minutes, and ask that any items that are brought will be carried in and out. They are unable to close off the area, so other people may be there prior to the arrival. We apologize for this inconvenience.
Question
Will the ceremony be unplugged?
Answer
Yes! We would like for all of our guests to be fully present for our ceremony, and make the most of their time! We ask everyone to silence phones, and leave the photography to our photographer. Thank you all!
Question
Will there be a re-reading of vows if I am unable to attend the ceremony?
Answer
Yes! We understand that the location and various other challenges that come along with it may hinder certain individuals ability to attend the ceremony, and this saddens us, as I'm sure it would be for those unable to attend. At the celebration following the ceremony, we will make it a point to recite our vows if needed!

Question
What will the after party be like?
Answer
The after party will be held at Liquid State Brewing Company, in their private room from 3-7pm. We will have a sign outside the door of the private room. When we arrive, we will recite our vows for those who could not be at the ceremony. Afterwards we will have our first dances with each other and our parents. Dinner will be catered by Silo Food Truck; they are partnered with the brewery! Feel free to look up the menu, they are known for their chicken, however we will have a gluten free pulled pork option as well. Let us know any dietary restrictions in the RSVP for the after party, and please message Ashlin or Nate with questions and concerns. After dinner there will be desert, and from then on out the rest of the time will be a casual gathering of our friends and families! We can't wait to celebrate with you all!
