FAQs

Question

Where do I park at the Reception Venue?

Answer

Good question! There are multiple parking spaces along the entire perimeter of the hall, but if those are filled up, we recommend parking along the block somewhere. Just make sure if you park at a meter spot, you pay. We recommend paying close attention to signs as getting tickets or getting your car towed would be awful!

Question

Why do I have to arrive at the Church 15 minutes prior to the start time of 5:00 pm?

Answer

Thanks for asking! The Wedding Ceremony will begin at 5 pm, and the doors will close a few minutes before 5 pm, as the bride will need to be inside the church building, at the entrance, at 5 pm sharp. If you arrive after 5 pm, you will have to wait a few minutes until the doors open again after the bride and groom have met at the altar. Please try to be on time :)

Question

Will there be a cocktail hour?

Answer

Yes! Cocktail hour will be available to guests who arrive at the venue at 6:30. We will be serving red and white wine, and we will also have some brie cheese with glazed apricot, crackers and fruit for guests to pick at. This brie cheese is one of our all-time favorites so we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Question

About the wedding

Answer

Valerie and Gerry wanted to have the most special wedding ceremony possible so they chose to have a Catholic Mass with traditional chanted music. They both share a love and history with gregorian chant and classical church music, so this will be a wonderful moment to bring all those experiences together in a very real and meaningful way.
