Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by March 15th by visiting the 'RSVP' tab on our website.

Question

When and where are the ceremony and reception taking place?

Answer

The ceremony will begin at 3:30pm at First Christian Church, located at 101 N 10th Street, Columbia, MO 65201. We encourage you to arrive 30 minutes before the ceremony begins - that way everyone has time to park, find their seat, and settle in before we say "I do." Cocktail hour and the reception will be held in the Elevation Ballroom at The Broadway Hotel, located at 1111 E Broadway, Columbia, MO 65201. Cocktail hour will begin at 5:30pm, and the reception will begin at 6:30pm.

Question

What can I do between the ceremony and cocktail hour?

Answer

There will be a brief break between the ceremony and cocktail hour while the wedding party is taking photos. During this time, guests are welcome to head to the reception venue, grab a coffee or drink nearby, or take a break before cocktail hour begins at 5:30pm. Please see our 'Things To Do' tab if you need suggestions on how to enjoy this time!

Parking

There is a parking lot available behind First Christian Church and is free for all guests. However, space is limited.
