We ask that you kindly RSVP by April 15th via our wedding website.
The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30 PM, so we kindly ask guests to arrive around 4:00 PM to allow time for parking, finding your seat, and settling in before the festivities begin.
As long as the weather cooperates, please plan for an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Ladies, the ceremony does take place in the vineyard on grass, however there is a brick path to get to your seats, so picking a thick heel may be ideal. Dinner will be served inside the reception hall in a temperature controlled environment. After dinner, we plan to open up the back of the venue to allow the party to extend onto the patio and under the stars. Please plan your attire accordingly.
We’ll be celebrating indoors and under the stars, so keep the weather in mind when choosing your look. We invite you to wear timeless black—whether that’s a chic black cocktail dress, an elegant black gown, or a sharp black suit or tux you’ve been saving for a special occasion. Come ready to dance, toast, and celebrate alongside us.
Our wedding is strictly RSVP only and we’re so excited to share this day with the people who matter most to us! If your invitation includes a guest, we’d be delighted to have them join the celebration! If not, we kindly ask that you come solo and enjoy a night of mingling, memory-making, and maybe even a few surprise dance moves. As for our younger guests: while we adore kids (and their dance floor energy!), this will be an adults-only celebration. We hope this gives parents a chance to kick back, raise a glass, and enjoy a night off. Thank you so much for understanding, we truly can’t wait to celebrate with you!
