This will be an adult wedding and reception. We love your kids! But we want our wedding to be your night off!
If you are staying at The Inn at Stonecliffe, horse taxis will take guests to the church for the ceremony. There will also be enough taxis to take everyone from the church back to the reception. If you stay at another location you will be responsible for your transportation to the church, and back to your hotel at the end of the night after the reception.
If your invitation says “and Guest,” then yes, if not, we would prefer if it was just you.
Dressy Casual. But we want you to feel comfortable, so if those shoes are too high or that top button is too tight, let it all hang loose. Also consider the weather on the island, which tends to be a bit cooler than lower Michigan.
We would love to have everyone stay! However, we understand everyone has their own preference. You can stay 1 night, or 2 nights, at Stonecliffe or at your favorite hotel! Or come for the day. The ferry schedule typically runs from 6am to 10pm. You will need to call a horse taxi or walk from the reception to catch your ferry back to the main land. Please make sure you allow enough time. Taxi times are estimates.
When you get off the ferry make sure your bags are given to the proper hotel porter. They will deliver your bags to the hotel. You then have the option to take a taxi to the hotel, enjoy some time downtown, or depending on the time head straight to the church. Check in is typically 3pm, so for those staying at Stonecliffe, you can check in after the wedding, before the reception starts. Your bags will already be there waiting for you.
