Both! The ceremony and cocktail hour will be outdoors, if weather permits, and the reception will be hosted indoors.

Question

Do y’all have a registry?

Answer

While we do have a registry, we also understand it is a huge ask of our family and friends to travel and stay the weekend all to celebrate us. Please do not feel obligated to buy us anything. We truly will be grateful just to have our family and friends present!

Question

Our incredible photographer, Morgan, will capture plenty of photographs for us to share with our friends and family.

Question

Where in the world is Dahlonega?

Answer

Dahlonega [Duh-lawn-uh-ga] is a small city in north Georgia located at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. The city is focused around the 19th century square which is home to many of our favorite locally owned restaurants (including Pueblos where we had our first date), candy shops, and stores. Outside of the city limits, Dahlonega features nearly a dozen stunning wineries including Monteluce, where Matt proposed! Dahlonega is also the home to the University of North Georgia (Mary’s alma mater), one of only six federally designated senior military colleges in the country. UNG’s campus is within walking distance of the square and all of the recommended accommodations. We highly encourage our guests to take a stroll through the campus; however, please do not cross the drill field located at the center of the campus out of respect for the school’s standing tradition. Dahlonega is a special place to us and we are so excited for our guests to come enjoy the weekend with us.
