FAQs

Question

Will children be allowed?

Answer

Due to limited capacity at our ceremony venue, we kindly request that the ceremony be attended by adults only. We sincerely appreciate your understanding. Children are warmly welcome to join us for the reception, should you choose to bring them — or feel free to enjoy a well-deserved evening out. Please note that when submitting your RSVP, any children listed will be marked as unable to attend the ceremony by default.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

In the spirit of creating an atmosphere that is both elevated and comfortable, we invite you to embrace dressy casual to semi formal attire. Please avoid jeans and shades of white.

Question

Are plus-ones allowed?

Answer

Please note that our wedding day will be a close-knit gathering, and we are only able to invite those listed on the invitation. Each invitation will specify how many seats are reserved for each party. Thank you for understanding.

Question

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Both the Ceremony and Reception will be held indoors. See schedule for more details.

Question

When should I arrive to the Ceremony?

Answer

We recommend arriving 20 minutes prior to allow time for parking and to be seated. If you’re unfamiliar with the area, please plan for extra travel time to ensure a smooth arrival. The church bell will be rang 15 minutes before the start of the ceremony to remind guests to take their seats.

Question

Why is my invitation only for the reception?

Answer

With much excitement, we look forward to our ceremony—an intimate celebration and union of our love—held at the Old Tabor Church on the historic Shawano Historical Society grounds. Due to the venue’s limited occupancy of just 70 guests, we’ve had to keep our ceremony guest list small. We kindly ask those invited to the after party to join us instead for the cocktail hour at our reception venue prior to dinner. Your understanding means the world to us, and we can’t wait to celebrate together during the evening festivities.
