We do ask that our guests arrive no earlier than 2pm as we will be taking photos and doing our vows privately in the vineyard.
We do ask that our guests refrain from photography during the ceremony! We have a professional photographer to capture our special moments and we would like to preserve those over photos from your phones. Once the ceremony is over please take as many photos as you like! We do ask however that you not post any photos of our event until the following week so we can enjoy a “social media” break as well.
No, the pavilion where we are doing our reception WILL NOT be open until after the ceremony. There will be canvases covering the entrances to prevent guests from entering. Please respect this as the wedding party will be decompressing in the pavilion before the ceremony! Once the ceremony is over the pavilion will be open for cocktail hour and appetizers.
Any of the public spaces at the venue are available for use! There may be areas that are blocked off from other private events. We definitely dont want to ruin anyone else’s special moments! So please refrain from wandering too far! The public still house and restaurant are open though, and can be utilized by anyone!
There is a map in our gallery! The parking lot for our event should be the first left turn after entering Gervasi. You will see a building for the Gervasi Market, and the pavilion will be beyond that further down the path. The seating for the ceremony will be lakeside, which is past the pavilion down that same path. Once you arrive after 2, please head straight to a seat of your choosing! Please reserve front seats for family!
If the weather happens to turn on us at all during the wedding, we CAN move everything into the pavilion, and lower the canvas covers to continue enjoying our guests company, and to continue partying! If weather does seem inclement, we will be posting on our website. So keep an eye out!
