Yes.
We will be following the guidelines set by Bay Arts. Currently, we would like guests to bring a mask to wear inside of Fuller House where the bathrooms are located and during buffet service. Otherwise, the rest is outside and everybody can use their own discretion.
We want people to be comfortable and have fun. The wedding is outdoors. There is a room inside the old Huntington Playhouse should the weather not cooperate. There's an air-conditioned gallery inside of Bay Arts and that's where the DJ will be. Most of the event will occur outdoors in the grass party area and the wraparound porch. So, don't feel compelled to wear suits, etc., but don't dress like Cousin Eddie in Christmas Vacation, either. Golf shirts and sundresses are a happy medium.
We are allowed to serve beer, wine, and hard seltzers. Bay Arts does not have a license to serve hard liquor. So wear cowboy boots to hide your flask.
That's completely up to you. Both locations where we reserved rooms have their advantages. The Hyatt Place at Crocker Park is just 2.5 miles from Bay Arts. It sits in a large outdoor shopping dining area. However, the Residence Inn is in downtown Cleveland and a short walk from the casino, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Progressive Field.
We will be heading to Maine two weeks after the ceremony, so we will be in Cleveland until Sunday.
