Question

Where should I park, and will I have to pay for parking?

Answer

There isn't a large parking lot for Christ Lutheran Church as it is in the middle of town. The church has its own lot, behind the front entrance for handicap parking and accessibility. If you are staying at a hotel in downtown Gettysburg, you are able to walk to the church. There is on the street parking with parking meters and a parking garage about 2 blocks away should you not be able to find parking on the street. There will be ample and free parking to guests at our reception site, The Round Barn.

Are the venues handicap accessible?

Answer

Yes! Please let us know if you have special requirements, but both the church and barn are well-equipped to accommodate wheelchairs and other assistive equipment.

Answer

Cocktails and hors d'oeuvres will be served upon your arrival to the reception. We will be having a BBQ buffet style dinner, and complimentary alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks will be available.

Yes. Our caterer has created a wonderful vegetarian option for those who request it. If you have other specific dietary restrictions, please let us know ahead of time so that we can do our best to accommodate your request.
