Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony starts promptly at 4pm so please make sure you are at the venue to park and take a brief walk to the ceremony site. I suggest arriving by 3:30pm at the latest, but between 3 and 3:30pm if you would like to take a look at the property or socialize with other guests beforehand.

Question

Is the ceremony outside? What happens if it rains?

Answer

Yes! It is a lovely setting, on a grass lawn in front of a beautiful waterfall. #mcraineyorshine we are getting married outside. November is fairly dry in the Cedartown area, but if there is a pop-up shower, our wedding coordinator will delay 15 minutes or so until it passes. If we end up with bad weather all day, we are still getting married outside. You are welcome to bring an umbrella and watch or hang out in the reception hall.
