Question

Will the wedding be outside?

Answer

Weather permitting, the ceremony will be outside - but we promise to keep it short! Cocktail hour and reception will take place in a covered pavilion.

Question

What Should I Wear?

Answer

Keep it casual, keep it classy! The ceremony will take place on grass (weather permitting), so maybe rethink any stilettos. There are also 2mi of scenic trails at the park, so bring appropriate footwear if you feel like exploring!

Question

Will there be an afterparty?

Answer

Oh yeah! We will wrap up the dance floor around 9pm. If you want to keep the party going, we will have a shuttle bus leaving for a downtown bar around 930pm. Bring cash for the bar. If you plan on taking the shuttle, we recommend you take ride share to the venue as there is no parking at Olin Park after 10pm.
