We would love to see our family and friends dressed up for our big day! Dress to impress! Please avoid all shades of white.
We are having an unplugged ceremony, meaning that once the ceremony begins, we ask that all phones be put away and silenced. We want everyone to be fully present with us. Once the ceremony is over, feel free to take as many pictures as you would like. Don't forget to share them with us!
Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guest formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, they will appear with your name on the RSVP.
You will be missed! If you cannot make it to the wedding, please let us know as soon as possible and RSVP "Not Attending" so we can plan accordingly. Thank you!
Yes! The drinks are on us and the hangover is on you...get ready to party!!!
We thank you wholeheartedly for traveling to celebrate with us! We have provided everyone with a list of hotels near our venue that you may book for the night. Please visit our "Where to Stay" tab to see hotels in the area.
The ceremony begins at 4:30pm. Please arrive at least 20 to 30 minutes prior to park and find a seat. If you arrive during the ceremony, we ask that you go straight to the reception area.
Yes, there will be a cocktail hour following the ceremony. Please help yourself to the popcorn bar and drinks we will have available. Take this time to enjoy the beautiful venue and snap pictures with friends!
Yes. There is parking at the venue. We will make sure there is signage for our guests. Shuttle transportation will be available from the parking lot to the venue.
Please do not feel obligated to purchase anything. Your presence is gift enough, but we also have a small gift registry and a honeymoon fund if you feel this is something you would like to do. You can locate this through the "Registry" tab.
Absolutely! We want you to have fun but want you to be safe at our wedding. If you need to leave your car overnight, please do!
The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will be held on-site at The Eagles Nest at the Lake, West Frankfort, IL. The ceremony will be held outside (weather permitting) and the cocktail hour and reception will be held inside.
Dinner will be buffet style with plenty to choose from. We will be offering strawberry salad, smoked chicken, smoked pork loin, loaded mashed potatoes, and corn casserole. Non-alcoholic drinks will also be available.
While we love your little ones, our wedding is only accommodating children within our family and wedding party. We hope you can take the evening to relax and enjoy the company. Unless your invite specifically addresses the family, we appreciate you making child care arrangements ahead of time so you can celebrate with us. For those of you that will be bringing children, please be sure to watch them closely; our venue sits back in the woods on a lake. Please keep in mind, there will be loud music and alcohol present throughout the night.
