We kindly ask that you RSVP by August 1st so we can give our final guest count to our vendors in enough time.
We’d love to have you for both events however we totally understand if you can only attend one or the other! Please just RSVP for which one you will be attending and if you are attending both please RSVP for both.
Your presence will be missed! Please RSVP “Will not attend” as soon as possible. If you have already RSVP’d attending, but find you will not be able to make it, please notify Emily (815) 391-0757.
Ceremony: 4:00-4:30 Cocktail hour: 4:30-6:00 Dinner: 6:00- 7:00 Dancing: 7:00- 11:00
We recommend arriving to the venue 20- 30 minutes early to be sure you’re able to find the venue, get parking, and settle in before it begins.
Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate additional guests, we can only accommodate those formally invited on your wedding invitation. Your invitation will be addressed as {Your Name} + {Guest} if a plus one has been given to you. Thank you for understanding!
In order to allow all guests, including parents, an evening of relaxation we have chosen for our wedding day to be an adult only occasion other than the children in our wedding party. We hope this advance notice means you are still able to share our big day and will enjoy having the evening off!
We ask kindly that you please put your phones away and on silent for an unplugged ceremony. We will have a very great photographer and will absolutely share those photos with you!
Yes, the drinks are on us! Please get ready to celebrate accordingly! Because of this, we also recommend using one of the hotels nearby to either walk or Uber to get home safely if you do not have a sober driver.
We’d love to see you all dressed up with us! Our dress code is semi-formal/ cocktail attire.
Weather permitting, we will be doing an outdoor ceremony. If the weather fails us, this will be moved inside. The reception will be held indoors and will also have an outdoor section where you can play yard games and makes s’mores if you choose.
More information to come on specifics but there is a lot across the street from the venue as well as angled street parking.
Absolutely! Please reach out to the bride or groom with any allergy-related concerns or requests.
