Question

When should I arrive?

Answer

For the reception at Turner Hall, cocktail hour starts at 16:30 and you are welcome to arrive a bit early to get a good spot in line. A staff member will be there to direct you.

Question

Is there parking?

Answer

There is a parking lot at St. Josaphat, as well as street parking. We recommend staying at a hotel near Turner Hall so that you can walk to the reception and the afterparty. There are also pay lots and street parking. The parking code for 20% off the posted rate in the South lot next to Turner Hall is 607TNR. You can park, walk to the electronic paystation, enter your license plate number, choose 'Turner Hall Event' and then enter that coupon code when prompted.

Question

Will I need to head to the reception straight from the ceremony?

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Attire is something like semi-formal/cocktail. The ceremony is in a church, but we want you to be comfortable enough to dance the whole night! Pro-tip from Bri: bring your really old boat shoes that your mom hates to dance in!
