Rent a car or take the Amtrak train from Chicago to Effingham. Amtrak: We suggest taking an early train, they typically get delayed. Please let us know via the RSVP page the times you'll be taking the train to and from Effingham. This to ensure we have transportation waiting for you. Effingham has very few cabs. Sorry, Uber hasn't come to Effingham yet :)
We love your children but we also want our guests to enjoy the whole day without looking after their little ones. So this is an adult only wedding reception. We understand this may be impossible for some of our guests traveling from abroad. We will have childcare available. Please reach out to us in advance if you will be needing a childcare during our wedding reception.
Only those indicated on the invitations have been accounted for. Unless your invitation specifically indicates "and guest".
We will be serving family style dinner with several options. We are aware that some guests have dietary restrictions (i.e. allergies). There is a place to write any allergies or food restrictions on the website's digital RSVP. If needed you can also reach out to us directly at CortneyandThomas@gmail.com. The caterer will make note and ensure we have a separate plate for you!
Yes, visit the Schedule + Travel & Accommodations pages on this website for all the info you need. We will have a shuttle bus traveling from the Holiday Inn hotel to pick you up at set times and drop you off at the end of the evening. Don't worry if you don't want to stay the entire time, the shuttle bus will drive multiple times back to the hotel throughout the evening.
