Aaron will share his passion for aviation by showing you around a few highlights of the museum. A group will depart from picnic brunch together in coordinated rideshares/carpooling.
Please enter the first and last name of one member of your party below.
If you're responding for you and a guest (or your family), you'll be able to RSVP for your entire group on the next page.
We would be grateful if you could RSVP as soon as you're able to help us plan catering and such. Absolutely no worries if coming would be inconvenient in any way. We know the day will go by fast and we'll have limited time with everyone since we're expecting about 150 people. We can always celebrate later with more quality time. If you prefer to visit us (we love to host) or have us visit you (we also love to travel), just let us know and we'll make a plan!
Yes, children are welcome. We are expecting 20+ children (mostly under 5) and are planning a family-friendly event. Accommodations & things to know: There will be a children's menu at dinner (pasta in white sauce and veggie sliders). The church has quiet spaces for nursing needs, a playground outside, and a preschool/nap nursery with three cribs downstairs. We have hired the two church preschool workers to provide childcare in the downstairs preschool for the full wedding ceremony and reception. During the outdoor cocktail hour, there will be a petting zoo and pony rides available!
We don't have rooms reserved at a specific hotel, but have a variety of properties available at reduced rates in the "Hotels" section of this website.
St. Peter's has ample parking, or you can use rideshares. We may be able to coordinate rideshares if you stay in the recommended hotels or nearby—more details to come. We do not recommend public transit for Saturday; the closest option is a bus stop over a mile from the church. Other events are all close to Metro stations.
For the wedding day, we're suggesting "cocktail attire" and the vibe is garden party! Ultimately sustainability is a core value to us, so we'd love if you'd wear what you already have. Children are welcome to wear whatever they'd be comfortable in to enjoy the on-site playground. Sunday events are casual—bonus points for aviation gear.
