FAQs

Question

I'm not Catholic, what should I expect at the ceremony?

Answer

We are so excited for you to join us for the Mass! The wedding Mass will be about an hour long. It is a time of praying together as a community (and of course we'll get married!). There are books in the pews that can guide you through the parts of the Mass. You are also welcome to simply follow along with what everyone else is doing. As Catholics, we believe that at communion we receive the real Body of Christ, not a symbol, so we ask that non-Catholics and Catholics who are not regularly practicing their faith to abstain from receiving communion. You are invited to come forward and cross your hands over your chest to receive a blessing from the priest (or you are welcome to stay in your seat).

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Sunday best. We will be having a full Catholic Mass, so please dress appropriately.

Question

What if I have allergies or dietary restrictions?

Answer

Our caterer can accommodate dietary restrictions. Please indicate what your needs are when you RSVP.

Question

Will there be a shuttle?

Answer

We will not have shuttles available. The hotels that we have our blocks with are within walking distance from the reception venue!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

If you were not given a plus one when you log into our website we ask that you not bring a plus one. We will need an accurate count for our caterer. If you are married or engaged and were not given a plus one, please reach out to one of us.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

If your children are not listed on your invitation/RSVP, we ask that you please do not bring them. Of course, if your child is very young and needs to be with you, we would love to have them join us!
