Invitations will be specific and will include the names of all people who are invited. We are not having little ones at the venue, due to limited space, however we encourage you to use this evening/weekend as a "night out" for yourself! Please reach out to the bride and groom if you would like any assistance in finding a babysitter in the area!
We want to make it known that Charlevoix has a draw bridge that goes up to let boats through on every half hour. Be sure to plan accordingly to afford time to get through town traffic if you are staying on the south side of the bridge. Otherwise, there should be no issues (we are aware of) in terms of construction or slowed travel.
Yes! We are registered at Amazon and Target. Please see the Registry tab for the links. Thank you for all your support.
There will not be organized transportation on our end, but we encourage you to drive wisely and Uber if desired or needed. The options of places to stay nearby are extensive and we hope you find a place close to the barn to enjoy Northern Michigan at!
We encourage all of you to dress up with us! Formal/cocktail attire is recommended.
Both! The ceremony will be held outdoors and the reception will be inside the barn. There are arrangements for the ceremony to be inside the barn if the weather does not hold up.
Unfortunately, unless it is explicitly stated on your invitation, we are not allowing plus ones or additional guests due to the limited size of the venue. Please reach out to the bride and groom if you have any questions.
There will be plenty of beer, wine, and liquor provided at the venue. Please do not bring any additional alcohol to the venue, to remain in line with Shanahan's policies.
We will be enjoying a duet plated dinner with chicken and pork. There will also be hor d'ourves served during the cocktail hour. Please let us know of any dietary restrictions you have when you RSVP, so our caterer can accommodate accordingly. Whether it is vegetarian or gluten free, we want to make sure all of our family and friends are treated to a delicious meal!
