FAQs

Question

Wait... are you really getting married on Halloween?

Answer

On the spookiest night of the year, we're saying "boo" to being single and "I do" to forever! Expect a little magic, a touch of mischief, and a celebration to die for. Don't worry, it's more love spell than horror story...or is it?

Question

Will children be allowed?

Answer

We love your little ghouls and goblins, but due to our venue and reception atmosphere, our wedding will be an adults-only affair. Tiny phantoms from our immediate family will be the only souls permitted to wander the halls. Time to grab a sitter and get spooky with us! We thank you for understanding and look forward to raising a glass, and maybe the dead, with you

Question

What is the suggested attire? Will there be costumes?

Answer

Think formal to semi-formal, with a touch of moonlight magic. Classic attire with room for a little flair - deep jewel tones, rich textures, but of course, whatever makes you comfortable. Dress to impress, as the spirits may be watching, but please leave the costumes at home.

Question

What time should I arrive for the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will start at 5pm in the evening and we would love if everyone could arrive 15-30 minutes beforehand to get seated and settled. We wouldn't want you missing out on the big "I do"!

Question

Are you having an unplugged ceremony?

Answer

As we step into our haunted happily-ever-after, we ask that you refrain from using phones or cameras during the ceremony. Our photographers and videographers - true masters of their craft - will capture every eerie, romantic moment. So sit back, be present, and enjoy the spellbinding show.

Question

What date should I RSVP by?

Answer

By the stroke of midnight on July 31, 2026, the veil will close, and the spirits must know who shall grace this haunted evening. Any RSVP not received by then will be counted as a soul lost to the night, unable to join our darkly enchanted celebration. Our spectral artisans must ready their potions and spells, so do not leave us adrift in the mist. Will you answer the summons and dance beneath the moon’s haunted glow at this devilishly romantic affair?

Question

Are we allowed to bring a plus one?

Answer

In the spirit of our cozy All Hallows’ Eve soiree, only those named on the invitation are invited to join our haunted revelry. If a plus-one is summoned, their name will appear, otherwise, get ready to haunt the night solo (but with plenty of ghostly company)!

Question

What is the bar situation going to be like?

Answer

In true Walker fashion, the bar will be open and spirits will be flowing, both the liquid kind and otherwise. Please remember, it is Halloween night, and we’d hate for any of our dearly beloved to find themselves in trouble with anything more frightening than a ghost… so plan accordingly. Summon an Uber, secure a room at the Bates Motel or a nearby Airbnb, or enlist Captain Spaulding as your chariot for the evening, but whatever you do, do not drink and drive. For those resting their heads in downtown Rome, a transportation shuttle will be running to and from the venue to deliver you safely back to your lair. The drinks may be on us - but the hangover will be your eternal curse

Question

What's on the menu?

Answer

We're conjuring up a feast fit for a haunted celebration! There will be a devilishly good grazing table during cocktail hour, followed by a family-style dinner that's more treat than trick. Come hungry- the kitchen witches have been busy.

Question

What if I need to fight off Michael Myers or Ghostface?

Answer

As much as we'd all like to be prepared for a fight, per the policy of the venue, please keep all weapons - real or replica - in your crypts. No blades, stakes or enchanted armaments, please. Open bars and spooky venues don't always mix well and we wouldn't want to speed up the "till death" part.

Question

What is The Lindale Mill all about?

Answer

The venue site is 24 acres with a 125+ year old boiler building, two 210 ft tall smokestacks, an old 3-story dye house building, an "Indigo Pad" belonging to the Ruins, and a terrace which overlooks the property. It also includes a river with a functioning dam bridge, old train trestle, and ample open spaces to star in your very own horror movie. There will be plenty of parking and the ability to leave your car there if you have had one too many drinks and pick it up the next morning when the gates open at 10am. https://lindalemill.com/
