FAQs

The Wedding Website of Makenna Calliham and Desmond O'Shea
Question

Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony will take place indoors at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Bryan, followed by an outdoor reception at Moore Ranch on the Brazos in Navasota. As December weather in Texas can be unpredictable, we recommend dressing in layers and checking the forecast closer to the date. We will do our best to accommodate all weather conditions!

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Semi-formal cocktail attire/ Western elegance, if that suits your style! Boots are encouraged! The reception will be outdoors in grass, so ladies consider this when choosing your shoes! For the guys, suits or starched jeans with boots and a sportscoat is great. And break out those cowboy hats while you're at it!

Question

What time should I arrive to the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony begins at 2:00 pm, we recommend you aim to arrive no later than 1:45 pm, as the ceremony will begin promptly.

Question

When does cocktail hour start?

Answer

Join us for cocktail hour at the reception site, around 3:30-3:45, immediately following the ceremony. Drinks and light bites will be served.

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes, we will have an open bar! Please plan accordingly as Ubers are not reliable once you are in Navasota. You may leave your car overnight at the venue, if needed. Your safety is our priority! <3

Question

Where will I park?

Answer

There is plenty of parking at both our ceremony and reception! Cars can be left overnight at reception and picked up the next morning. However, the venue gate won't be unlocked until 10 am on 12/7/25, so keep this in mind if you do leave your car.

Question

When should I RSVP?

Answer

We ask that you RSVP as soon as you can so we can organize with our vendors. However, the deadline is November 1st.

Question

What if I no longer can make it?

Answer

If your plans have changed after you have RSVP'd YES, simply change your response to NO, or text us to let us know. We understand life happens! We will miss you!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

We'd love to include everyone, but we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitations. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Are there transportation services?

Answer

We aren't providing transportation services to and from the reception. If this is a concern, I highly recommend scheduling an Uber in advanced to pick you up from Moore Ranch around 9:45 pm. It is hard to get Ubers once you are in Navasota.

Question

What time will the ceremony end?

Answer

The reception will end around 9:30 PM with a final send-off outside the reception hall.
