Please wear whatever makes you most comfortable. We do advise you consider the weather possibilities. November in Ohio could bring possible snow or an unexpected sunny day. Shoes: the parking lot is gravel and the walkways are paved in between all areas. The reception, cocktail hour and bar area are also paved. The ceremony however, will take place on a grassy area unless it is raining. Again weather dependent, the ground may be wet or soft.

Question
What is an unplugged ceremony?
Answer
An unplugged ceremony is where guests are asked to leave their cell phones turned off and put away during the ceremony. We would rather see your happy smiles and lovely faces. Our photographer and videographer are great, they will capture everything for us. This provides the opportunity for us all to be present in the moment instead of trying to capture pictures/video. Guests cell phones won't be in the photographers pictures. And vice versa.
