Yes, please look under "Travel" for the preferred hotels and make sure to ask for the Grilliot/Donahue Wedding Group Discount! For those interested in staying at a historic site, there are many wonderful inns (example: The Kenmore Inn) and AirBnbs (such as The Olde Towne Carriage House, The Olde Derby Place, and Weaver House B&B). These options are not part of our wedding party lodging reservations.
Parking is free and there are parking lots around the church for the ceremony and the reception hall. The Marriott is a lodging option that has limited parking as it is in downtown Fredericksburg, so those planning to stay at the Marriott will have the option to park in the Marriott's parking garage for $8/day or to park a few blocks away at no cost by the riverfront.
No to the ceremony, yes to the reception hall. Please look under the "Travel" section for more information.
Between 1:30-1:50pm. The ceremony begins at 2pm, so please be seated by this time.
If your invite has a "Plus One" option, then yes!
Of course! When you RSVP, please let us know if you have any food preferences (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, pescatarian, ect.) and if you have any allergies we should be aware of. We have alternative dining options available.
