Question

Is the wedding still happening on July 11th, 2020?

Answer

Yes, we are still getting married as originally planned on July 11th, 2020 at the Barn at Trinity Peak in Oconomowoc, WI. We understand if family/friends have concerns regarding the coronavirus and cannot attend.

Question

Are there any coronavirus-related safety precautions/restrictions at the wedding?

Answer

There are no mandated coronavirus-related safety precautions or restrictions on the amount of people who can attend, although the barn itself has always had a maximum capacity of 200 (we are currently expecting around 120 guests to attend). However, we will be taking precautions to help guests feel safe (refer to question below).

Question

What safety measures are you taking regarding the novel coronavirus?

Answer

There will be hand sanitizing stations throughout the barn and at each table, proper hand-washing by all employees, staff monitored daily upon arrival for health, sanitizing of beverage/bar area on a regular basis, sanitizing of credit cards after transactions, sanitizing of restrooms, knobs, etc. on a regular, on-going basis, water served from the bar and small bottles of water supplied, guests not allowed to reuse glasses at the bar, guests encouraged to bring their empty beverage cups to the bar for disposal in exchange for a new drink, outdoor ceremony, barn doors will remain open throughout the day/night to provide ample airflow, and we will provide face masks for those that want to wear one. We are also using the full amount of tables so that we can limit each table to 6-8 guests (rather than the originally planned 10 guests per table).

The entire event will be taking place at the venue - Barn at Trinity Peak - in Oconomowoc, WI. The ceremony will be outdoors under a large tree and the reception will be inside the barn.
