We have a room block at Mount Sequoyah. Call 479-443-4531 and state that you are looking to book in Haley's and Adam's block OR email stay@mountsequoyah.org. We don't have an automated online system at Sequoyah. Since Haley works there, she will be happy to talk you through the lodging options!
Semi-Formal: This dress code consists of a button-down collared shirt and slacks, pantsuit, or below-the-knee dress. Our wedding colors will match the fall leaves of late October if you care for inspiration! Matching the fall color palette is not required. We have booked some unpaved outdoors space, so if you care to enjoy the view in the fall air, keep in mind that thinner heels may get stuck in the ground.
St Paul's is a Christian church of the Episcopal denomination. The service will include scripture readings, vows, and Eucharist. Typically weddings in this tradition last about an hour and twenty minutes. If you are interested in seeing what a service is like, you can go to www.stpaulsfay.org/worship to see archived services. The service will be livestreamed and if at any point you need to leave your pew, there is the option to watch the service from the church bookstore.
No. Please leave cameras at home and phones on silent and tucked away. The ceremony will be videoed by the church and a professional photographer will take pictures at appropriate times outside of the service.
Wherever you are in your journey of faith, you are welcome at St Paul's and you are welcome at God's table. Participation in taking the bread and wine is up to you; our church has an open table, which means that you do not need to be a baptized Christian to participate in this sacrament. Rather, the requirement is that you come to the table with an open heart.
The ceremony venue, St Paul's Episcopal church, has parking in front of the church in a lot on East Avenue, as well as behind the church in a lot off of College avenue. The church is handicap accessible. The reception venue, the Dining Room at Mount Sequoyah, has parking in front of the building as well as in several places across campus. The most accessible spots will be reserved for those with mobility issues.
