FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

The dress code for our wedding is formal cocktail. We suggest men wear a suit or dress shirt (tie is optional!) and women wear a midi- or knee-length dress or dressy separates. We do not have a color theme, so wear what makes you happy. The reception will be outdoors, so please keep that in mind!

Question

I have never attended a Catholic mass - how do I know when to sit, stand, or kneel? What should I do when people line up to receive the Eucharist?

Answer

We are beyond blessed to have Mikayla's Uncle, Father Timothy Gapinski, to be presiding over the mass as we unite in matrimony. He is excellent at giving subtle cues to guide you along! If you are not Catholic, or won't be receiving the Eucharist that day, you may stay seated in the pew or are welcome to come forward in the line to receive a blessing instead. You can indicate that you will only be receiving the blessing by crossing your arms across your chest. Father Timothy will be sure to demonstrate this during that time in the mass.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony and reception?

Question

What time should I arrive?
