The ceremony will begin promptly at 6:00 PM. Please arrive 20 minutes before the start time to find a seat.
The dress code is black-tie optional.
"Black-tie optional" means that guests have the option of wearing their most formal attire (an evening gown or tuxedo) but may also choose to wear a dark colored suit and tie, or floor length dress. Generally, a black-tie optional dress code means the couple and their wedding party will be dressed black tie. We also ask that you refrain from wearing colors reserved for the bride, including: white and ivory.
Weather permitting, the ceremony and cocktail hour will be held outside and the reception will be held inside.
We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. If you have any questions, please reach out. If you receive a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP.
We kindly ask that you do not have your phones or cameras out during the ceremony. Our photographer and videographer will be capturing the ceremony and we don't want any phones in our photos.

Most of the Historic District is very walkable, but there are plenty of other options. Uber and Lyft are always readily available. There are also horse carriages and independent single ride/shuttle services. A company we have used frequently and like is Old Town Connect. Their website is www.otctransit.com and their phone number is 904-718-5188.
Unfortunately, there is not a dedicated parking lot for Chatsworth. There are metered spots lining the nearby streets and a public lot next to the south end of the Lightner Museum.
Yes! There are 2 shuttles running from the Hilton Garden Inn to the River House. They leave at 5:00 and 5:10. A shuttle will be taking guests who wish to leave a little early back to the hotel periodically during the reception and it will make a final trip after it ends. Additionally, after the reception ends, an authentic St. Augustine trolley will be taking the bride and groom as well any guests who would like to join for a nightcap at a local bar.
If you choose to drive, you can use the River House’s parking lot across the street. Also, the River House will allow you to leave your car overnight as long as it is retrieved by noon the next day.
If you do not RSVP by February 10th, 2025. You will be marked as “not attending.” We would love to celebrate with you but we have to give an accurate guest count to our vendors.
