Question
What time should I arrive for the ceremony?
Answer
The ceremony will begin promptly at 3:30 PM. We recommend arriving between 3:00 and 3:15 PM to allow plenty of time to park, walk to the venue, and find your seat before the celebration begins.
Question
Is there parking at the venue?
Answer
Yes, there's a 136 space parking lot with street lighting, space for campers and busses and a lovely view of the estate. There is a designated walking path with only a three minute walk from the parking lot to the estate. You may drop off your companions at either entrance to the estate prior to parking and a shuttle from the parking lot to the front can be done upon request! Overnight parking is accepted and welcome in the event of a driver being unable to operate their motor vehicle.
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
We kindly request cocktail attire for our celebration. For women, this includes midi- or knee-length (or longer) dresses, and for men, a suit or dress pants paired with a blazer. We respectfully ask that guests refrain from wearing white, ivory, or cream, as these are reserved for the bride. Our wedding colors are navy, emerald, and gold, which may serve as inspiration for your attire if you wish. While Indiana winters can be quite cold, please note that the event will be held entirely indoors.
Question
Is there a coat check?
Answer
There will not be a formal coat check at the venue; however, there will be plenty of closet and hanging spaces available for guests to store their coats throughout the evening. These areas will remain easily accessible for you to retrieve your belongings at the end of the night.
Question
Will there be a bar?
Answer
Yes! We will have an open bar offering a selection of beer, wine, and mixed drinks. Please note that shots, doubles, and straight liquor (“neat”) will not be served, and we kindly ask guests to refrain from any rapid consumption methods (such as beer bongs or shotgunning). In accordance with venue policy, alcohol service will begin after the ceremony. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to celebrating responsibly with you!
Question
Is smoking permitted at the venue?
Answer
Smoking or vaping of any kind is not permitted inside the venue. However, there will be a designated smoking area by the bonfire, where guests are welcome to smoke or vape. For those who enjoy cigars, we’ll also have a cigar bar at the bonfire featuring some of the bride and groom’s favorite selections.
