FAQs

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

Answer

Yes. There is a golf tournament happening at Notre Dame over the wedding weekend. This means that hotels are filling up now, rates will be a little higher than normal, and things are likely going to be more crowded around campus. Please plan accordingly.

Question

Where is the ceremony/reception taking place?

Answer

The wedding ceremony and Mass will be at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart on Notre Dame's campus. The reception will be at the Blue Heron at Blackthorn, about a 15 minute drive from campus.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Yes, there's parking behind the Basilica on campus, although we'd advise getting there early as campus may be crowded this weekend. There is also visitor parking near the stadium; that's about a 10 minute walk. This is plenty of parking at the reception.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

We hope our wedding will be a fun excuse to wear your favorite cocktail attire!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes! We've secured a few blocks of rooms in the South Bend/Mishawaka area. Please see the Travel page for more information.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will start promptly at 3pm, and we'd recommend allowing extra time to get there because campus and the surrounding areas may be crowded due to the golf tournament.
