Question
How far away is the Oregon Garden from St. Paul's Catholic Church?
Answer
Our ceremony will be at St. Paul's Catholic Church in Silverton (1410 Pine St. Silverton, OR 97381) and our reception will be at the Oregon Garden (879 W Main St. Silverton, OR 97381). The two locations are 1.6 miles (5 minute drive) apart from one another.
Question
What should I do in between the ceremony and the reception?
Answer
Our ceremony will start at 2:00 PM. Our reception will begin with a live musician, appetizers, and drinks at 3:30 PM followed by dinner and dancing. Our ceremony will be a full Catholic mass and sacrament of marriage, so we anticipate this lasting for 1 Hour and 15 minutes. Immediately following the ceremony, guests can make their way over to the Oregon Garden for the reception!
