June 24th, 2023 from 5:30 pm to 11:45 pm!
Both are at Goldner Walsh in Pontiac, MI. It's a super cute storefront with beautiful gardens and greenhouses! There won't be any need to get in a car and travel between two venues.
We recommend showing up early for the ceremony so you don't miss it. The ceremony will be starting at 5:30pm so try to arrive by 5pm.
Unfortunately, we are operating from RSVPs only due to budgeting. If you feel you were owed a plus one, or we missed your kid when planning out the guest list, please let us know, but we may be unable to include them.
Yes. parking is free! Goldner Walsh is an operational store as well as an event space, so they have lots of parking! We do recommend carpooling to cut down on the amount of cars in the lot, as it will likely get crowded! If for some reason the parking lot does overflow, there are a few side streets to park on and a couple other businesses within walking distance.
The RSVP deadline is May 21st, 2023 and you can RSVP by mail or by text and phone call.
You will be sorely missed! We only ask you please let us know you can't attend and RSVP so we can plan accordingly!
This is a formal event, so please dress accordingly! We would really prefer people to wear formal garden party attire, florals, and pastel tones. We do also recommend you shy away from layers and super heavy clothing. It will be summer and the ceremony is outside!
Yes! We are planning a fairytale garden party wedding. All the more reason to wear garden party clothes! We hope the day will be magical and exciting, just like any good book.
The ceremony is taking place outdoors, but the reception will be indoors. Either way, we expect the day to be quite warm and recommend planning for that. We will be cooling the greenhouses, but don't bring a coat or thick socks anyway. A light jacket in case it gets chilly or rains is the best you can do to prepare for colder weather.
No! We are doing a buffet style dinner service, so you can choose your own meal the day of. If you have any dietary restrictions please let us know in advance so we can better accommodate you.
Yes, please do! We will need to know in advance to make it happen but we will do our best to provide for you if we can!
After the ceremony the bridal party will take pictures for an hour or so. There will be refreshments for you to enjoy in the meantime and you can explore the beautiful gardens and greenhouses. We have loved walking around our venue on sunny days and hope you will too!
For the time being we have been provided some discounted rates through Zola here at: https://zola.hotelplanner.com/231035200/EventPage6924398 We are working to figure something out further.
Yes! We are registered here, through Zola, and also at Target at the moment! Our Target registry can be found at: https://www.target.com/gift-registry/gift/maryandannie
We do not want anyone using their phones or cameras during the ceremony! We have hired a wonderful photographer to do that for us. For the rest of the night go right ahead! We heavily encourage picture taking at this point. Our wedding hastag is #happilyeverlaster
