FAQs

Question

Are we allowed to bring our pets?

Answer

As much as we know that our pets are part of the family, our venue does not allow pets inside any of the buildings. Due to the expected warmth of the summer day we hope the beloved pets will be left somewhere cool and comfortable for the ceremony and reception. After the reception well-behaved and leashed pets are welcome outside to enjoy the rest of the day at the lake!

Question

Are there any vaccine or mask requirements or recommendations for this event?

Answer

The short answer is "no". While vaccination status guidelines and mask rules are not in place, we do hope that anyone who is not feeling well on the day of our event respectfully stays at home recovering so as not to expose our families and guests to any unwanted contagions.

Question

What are the wedding colors?

Answer

Forest green and slate blue with some wiggle room.

Answer

No! This is definitely not a child-free wedding! We are hoping to see many invited children with their parents! We are expecting infants, toddlers, and many other young people to attend!

Question

Will there be hired childcare?

No, we are not hiring childcare. We do ask that the parents or guardians of any young guests specifically attend to any littles you do bring. Since there is a large body of water and lots of wedding day commotion we want to ensure the safety and comfort of everyone.
