Yes - we will be arranging buses to pick up guests and transport them to the wedding and back to the hotel after the reception. Amount of pick-ups and timing is still being coordinated. Check back here closer to the date of the wedding for further details.
The hotel has reserved 20 rooms for our block. Once they are filled, you may contact the hotel and see if they have additional rooms that have not been booked. If the hotel is full, they have a sister hotel that shares the same parking lot that should be able to handle any overflow. Worst case, there are several other hotels in the area near the Hilton Garden Inn Exton.
In addition to the night of the wedding (Friday November 12th), we have blocked rooms for Thursday night for the rehearsal if needed. We imagine Thursday night is only needed (if desired) for bridal party, family, and guests traveling from out of town. When you are booking a room for Friday night only (night of the wedding), you must click "Edit Stay" and change the dates of the booking so it won't automatically include Thursday night in your stay.
Everyone is welcome! Even if you're not planning on staying at the hotel, we plan on continuing to celebrate in the hotel lobby/bar area which includes an outdoor patio with a firepit and string lights. They will keep the bar open for us up until 2 am as long as all guests are behaved. We also plan on ordering pizza :)
Unfortunately no, the hotel does not allow pets.
Yes, there is ample parking behind the venue after you drive in, please follow the direction of Meredith Manor staff when you arrive.
Although we love our expanding group of friends and family and spending time with your little ones, we ask that you please leave them with a relative or babysitter so you can enjoy a night out and celebrate all night with us.

Unfortunately we cannot predict what things will be like in November at this point in time. The venue has invested in air scrubbers and has a maximum capacity of 300 people, which is double what the size of our wedding will be. There is also ample outdoor space which will potentially be used for the ceremony weather permitting. Most of our family and friends who will be attending are fully vaccinated. If you have not been vaccinated and are uncomfortable attending, we completely understand and would like everyone to do what they believe is best.
