Question

What about COVID?

Answer

We ask that out of an abundance of caution and respect for all guests in attendance that you please take a COVID-19 test in the days leading up to the event and not attend if it is positive or if you feel any symptoms. While we know many of our guests have been or will be vaccinated by May 1st, there will be copious amounts of hand sanitizer, mask wearing, social distancing, and test requirements for staff. While there are indoor structures for use, the ceremony and reception will be held outdoors.
