Question

Apple maps isn't loading properly, why?

Answer

Apple maps doesn't like us very much, it has a completely separate address for the Carriage House and doesn't even recognize the Rose Gardens as existing! If you search on Google Maps (or Waze) with the titles included in the invitation, everything will load correctly. If you have questions, though, please don't hesitate to reach out to us!

Question

What will the ceremony be like?

Answer

The ceremony will be standing only, so wear comfortable shoes! It will only be about 30 minutes. We are not allowed to set up chairs or extra decorations so we will be enjoying the natural beauty of the garden!
