Can I bring a date?

Answer

If your invitation says "and Guest", then yes! However, our venue has limited space, so we ask that you don't bring a date/guest unless one is specifically noted on your invitation. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Is the ceremony/reception indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will be held indoors.

Question

What happens after the ceremony?

Answer

Immediately following the ceremony, we'll take photos with family at the church, and then leave to take photos with our wedding party. During this time, all guests are invited to attend cocktail hour starting at 4:00 PM at Kokies Echo Valley. Light bites and cocktails will be provided. The reception will follow between 5:00-5:30 pm.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

There's paved parking available in front of the church, and plenty of additional parking in the back on a gravel lot. Please do not plan on leaving your cars parked at the church after the ceremony, though. There's a 4:00 PM Mass on Saturdays, and we'll need to clear the lots for those attending. Kokies has plenty of parking for guests, too. It's a big, gravel lot directly across from the venue.
