We are having a semi-formal dress code. For Men: Suits, blazers, button-up shirts with or without a tie, etc. For Women: Cocktail dresses, midi dresses, dressy jumpsuits, etc. Feel free to reach out if you are still unsure!

Question

Are the wedding ceremony and reception at the same location?

Answer

Yes! Both the ceremony and reception will take place at The Willow in Johnstown, PA. Please see the Schedule Page for more details!

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony/reception?

Answer

There is a parking lot outside of our wedding venue. There will also be a shuttle provided to and from the venue for those guests staying at the Holiday Inn and Hampton Inn. Please note in your RSVP if you plan to utilize the shuttle so we can better estimate how many people will utilize this service. Additionally, we kindly request that you do not leave your car parked at the wedding venue after the reception.

Question

Will the wedding be inside or outside?

Answer

The ceremony will take place outside in the grass (or under the covered patio in the case of inclement weather). The cocktail hour will take place both on the covered patio as well as inside The Willow. The reception will take place inside the venue with outside patio access. The inside of the venue does have air conditioning (Karch's only venue request).

Please let us know your plans by June 1, 2025. We hope to celebrate with you!

Question

There will be an open bar for guests to enjoy throughout cocktail hour and the reception!

Question

Will there be a bridal dance/dollar dance?
