We reserved the rooftop at The Ghent the evening before the wedding for a welcome event. If you're coming in early, please join us! Your first drink is on us and we'll have light bites. Additional food and drinks are available for purchase. There's free parking across the street in 'The Palace Shops' parking lot or behind the building on 20th street across from Matthew Fontaine Maury High School's baseball field.
We encourage you to be seated at our ceremony site (Butterfly Garden) by 5:45 PM as the ceremony will start at 6:00 PM. Please keep in mind that you will need to catch the tram from the Baker Hall Visitor Center to the Butterfly Garden at 5:15 PM, 5:30 PM or 5:45 PM. If you are unable to arrive in time to catch the tram, you will have to walk approximately 10 minutes to our ceremony site.

Our wedding is strictly invite only and we will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. We appreciate your understanding.
We can only accommodate children who are in our families and in the wedding party. We hope this advance notice gives you a chance to make arrangements to celebrate with us.
Yes, we recommend guests dress in semi-formal attire, which typically includes long dresses or cocktail dresses for the ladies, and a suit and tie for the gentlemen. We recommend leaving the stilettos at home to avoid sinking into the grass during cocktail hour. If you have any specific questions, feel free to reach out to us!
We will have two fantastic photographers capturing all of the best shots and recording the ceremony for us. We want to keep our ceremony technology free, so please put your phones away for our special moment. Don't worry, we will share our pictures with you.
As one of our honored guests, no! When you arrive to the garden entrance, let the attendant know that you are here for the Delcid-Grünberg wedding.
Our venue is beautiful and to preserve its beauty, the venue prohibits smoking anywhere on the premises, including outdoors on the property.
