We would love to see our family and friends get dressed up with us! We are requesting a semi-formal dress code for our evening. (See the Schedule page for more details)
We love your little ones-we really do. However we respectfully request no children under 18 years of age. We hope you take this as an opportunity to enjoy a date night- we appreciate you making prior arrangements.
Both the ceremony and reception will be at the Avanti Mansion, which offers free onsite parking. Upon arrival, park in the second lot, closest to the white tented structure.
The wedding ceremony will begin promptly at 5:00 p.m. in the Garden. Please consider arriving by 4:45 p.m. to the ceremony in order to find a seat and get settled in. Since the wedding is on a Friday, rush hour traffic will be accumulating around that time. If you are coming from the Northtowns, please take into account the 290-90 merge near the blue water tower.
To help plan on dress, along with comfort level, both the ceremony and reception are outside! The ceremony is a multi-leveled garden which is a short walk from the parking lot. This is completely outside. The reception will be in a large tent surrounding the garden with all sides open, weather depending.
We are having an "unplugged" ceremony. This just means we are asking that all phones and devices be put away and on silent/turned off during the ceremony. Why? Well, we've hired a professional photographer and videographer to capture some of the most important moments of our lives, and we'd hate to have a well-meaning person's phone/device blocking that moment for them to capture. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos as you want! And we promise to share the ceremony photos as soon as we get them.
