Question

Where is the reception? Part 2.

Answer

The reception will be indoors, at the upstairs restaurant (enter at the ground floor doors). The restaurant will be operating as usual apart from the wedding reception.

What's the dress code?

Answer

Dressy casual is where it's at. (Google it for examples--we know it sounds contradictory!)

Question

What will we be eating?

Answer

We are going to have a family style meal prepared by the Stone House. The dishes will include chicken, a vegan gnocchi, a seasonal salad, roasted potatoes and veggies, and dessert. All options are gluten free and most (maybe all--checking on that!) are dairy free. There will be pizza for the little ones who might not want the other dishes. (The pizza is not gluten or dairy free.) Cocktail hour will have two appetizers, which are not gluten or dairy free.
