Yes. We will have a coach bus to escort guests to and from the hotel/venue at various times throughout the day and night. For more information about the schedule, please visit the "Travel" tab!

Question

Is there parking available at the venue?

Answer

Yes, parking will be free at the golf club. You are not allowed to leave your car overnight though so if you are unsure of whether you'll be able to safely drive home afterwards, we encourage you to either Uber or use the coach bus/shuttle to and from the hotel.

Question

Can I take pictures during the ceremony?

Answer

We will have a reminder on the day of the wedding, but please do not have your phone out during the ceremony. We are confident that between the multiple photographers and videographers we will have, we will get any and all "shots" we would like. We will happily share those photos/videos with you all once we get them as well.
