Our Ceremony
1:30 pm - 2:30 pm
6700 Azalea Garden Rd, Norfolk, VA 23501
Wear what you feel comfortable being photographed in. Keep in mind this is outdoors, so I would choose wedges, chunky heels, flats, or sneakers.
Please arrive early, to allow for public parking and private shuttling from the parking lot to the ceremony location. This time of year gets VERY busy at the gardens. Please let the gate attendants know you are arriving for the Miller/Sharpe wedding and you will not have to pay for entry. There is a public parking lot that *may* reserve spaces for us. A shuttle will be running from the main entrance to the ceremony location. Shuttle takeoff times are 12:45 and 1pm. You are also welcome to walk to the Reflection Garden anytime. You are welcome (and encouraged!) to explore the gardens after the ceremony. Please bring comfortable shoes if you don't wear them, even a change of clothes if you prefer to have an extended stay. Water will be provided. If you have any cards and/or physical gifts, please bring them to the reception rather than the ceremony.
Reception
7:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Please use main entrance. You may use the stairs or elevator to get to the reserved roof top space. Food: We will be providing drinks and cocktail-style food. Please plan to eat a meal between the ceremony and reception, as full formal dinner will not be provided. There are so many wonderful local restaurants in the area and within walkable distance to the reception venue. Parking: There is no dedicated parking for this event. We recommend utilizing parking garages, many of which are within walking distance. Freemason Street Garage and Bank Street Garage are the closest (2 min and 6 min walk, respectively). Limited metered street parking is also available. Venue: The reception space is indoor/outdoor, rooftop. Plan to bring an extra layer! If you have any cards and/or physical gifts, please bring them to the reception rather than the ceremony.
