Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
Our suggested attire is formal. We kindly ask that guests dress to impress! For women, this typically means a floor-length gown, nice cocktail/tea length dress, or chic pantsuit. For men, a sports coat and tie, a suit and tie, or a tuxedo is appropriate. We can't wait to celebrate with you in style!

Answer
Both our ceremony and reception will be indoors with a short cocktail hour outdoors under a covered patio.
Question

Alabama summers are typically warm, sunny, and humid! We recommend wearing light fabrics and colors to help beat the heat.
Question
Is there parking at the venue?
Answer
Yes, there is on site parking just across the street from the venue.
Travel
Flight
Hartsfield- Jackson International Airport
Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta is the closest airport and offers direct flights to most locations. Please note that it is in the eastern time zone and all wedding festivities will be in the central time zone. For departing flights on Sunday, we recommend leaving 5 hours prior to flight time to travel from the Auburn/Opelika area to the Atlanta airport and clear security to have an stress-free travel day. Please keep this in mind when booking flights if you don't want an early wake up call!
Hotel
Element by Marriott Opelika Auburn

Our Favorite Places In Town
Botanic
Botanic is a true treasure! It's Riley and Erin's favorite spot for grabbing a coffee and light breakfast on the patio, a nice brunch or dinner, a cocktail and live music, or exploring their greenhouses and walking around the lake!
Moe's Original BBQ
An Auburn staple for BBQ! The downtown Auburn location is our favorite, but both locations have indoor and outdoor spaces, good drinks, great BBQ, and are perfect for watching ball games and enjoying a laid back evening!
Stinson Breads LLC
Locally owned bakery in downtown Opelika with fresh bread, pastries, delicious sandwiches, and coffee! A cute spot for breakfast or lunch!
Hey Day Market
Riley and Erin frequented Hey Day during college! They have multiple food, drink, and desert options and an outdoor lawn with yard games, outdoor seating, and a gorgeous view of Samford Hall: Auburn's iconic clocktower where Riley and Erin got engaged!
Toomer's Drugs
Truly a must when you are in Auburn! Toomer's lemonade is an Auburn staple! It sits right across from campus and is a nice stop while exploring downtown Auburn or Auburn University's campus. This was one of the first places Erin went when she came to tour Auburn... and may have been a part of what made her fell in love with it here!
Sheila C's Burger Barn
The best burgers in town!
Mrs. Storys Dairy Bar
Hotdog and ice cream stand that has been an Opelika staple for decades- Riley took Erin here to get a chili cheese dog the night of our first date! It holds a special place in our hearts!
