Q & A
Question
When should I arrive?
Answer
Guest seating for the wedding ceremony opens at 3:30pm. We ask that guests are seated no later than 3:50pm for the 4:00pm ceremony. The reception begins at 5pm and is roughly 20 minutes from the wedding site. After the ceremony ends head over to the party!
Question
Where should I park?
Answer
The road leading to Exploration Gateway is a loop with an upper and lower parking lot. You can park in either - both are roughly the same distance from the front entrance. Elm Ridge Event Center has its own parking lot.
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
We're aiming for formal or semi-formal. Please nothing too casual (jeans/tshirts/sneakers/etc) Keep in mind the ceremony is outside at the end of October in Ohio
Question
Can I bring a Plus 1?
Answer
Unfortunately we cannot accommodate plus 1's unless they're specifically listed as a guest on your invitation/RSVP. We hope you understand!
Question
Can I bring my children?
Answer
Generally we would like to keep children at the wedding to a minimum. However we do love your kiddos and have listed space for them in your RSVP. All children attending must be supervised at all times and we ask that they are quiet and respectful during important aspects of the day (e.g. ceremony, speeches, first dance, parent dances, cake cutting etc). If young children become fussy during these moments we politely request they be escorted out of the room until they quiet down. Both the ceremony location and reception site have spaces for this.
Question
Do you have a gift registry?
Answer
Your love is the greatest gift of all! We’re so excited to celebrate our marriage with you. For those who would like to give, we’ve created both a traditional registry and cash funds to help us get started in our new life as newlyweds! Please feel free to choose whichever option feels right to you - your support, in any form, truly means the world to us.
