While we adore your children, we’ve decided to make our wedding an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening! Please let us know if you would like assistance finding childcare in Columbus.
If a guest has been included, it will be noted on your invitation and during the RSVP process. Thank you so much for your understanding!
For the Welcome Party, guests are invited to wear dressy casual attire. For the wedding day, black tie is preferred. Guests may consider floor-length gowns, tuxedos, or other formal evening attire. Ladies are kindly asked to refrain from wearing white dresses or any similar shades. For inspiration, please visit the Guest Attire tab.
The ceremony begins promptly at 4:30pm, so please plan to arrive by 4:00pm to allow time for seating and to enjoy a glass of champagne before the ceremony begins. Please note: As the Ohio Statehouse is a government building, all guests will be required to pass through security upon entering and exiting the venue. We kindly recommend allowing a little extra time for this process.
