Question

Dress Code?Dress Code?

Answer

Really flexible. Think fancier than garden party, but more casual than cocktail. Gowns and dress pants fit in, but so would a tea-length dress or khakis. We hope to get married outside and there is grass in the backyard of the Holiday House, so maybe a platform or a chunky heel, just in case? The most important part is that you dress to feel comfortable and pretty! Just please don't wear white...Can't wait to see the fit!

Answer

We will have an open bar! A small, staffed bar that will offer two signature cocktails, as well as some wine and beer selections that Johnathan and I enjoy! The bar will be available during and after dinner.

Question

Parking?Parking?

Answer

The parking situation is a first-come-first-served kind of deal, but September is off-season. We don't anticipate too much congestion on the roads and neighborhoods, but do keep in mind you might have to look a little to find a spot.

Holiday House is owned by GFS in the Diocese of Pennsylvania, and is the last of over 30 such GFS houses and lodges that existed in the early 1900s. Offering sea breezes, porches with rocking chairs, pleasant rooms, two daily meals, and a warm and friendly atmosphere, it is open from Memorial Day to Labor Day with single, double, and triple-occupancy rooms for individuals, families, and Christian-affiliated organizations. Maximum occupancy is 42. Located in the Historic District of Cape May, it has 4 floors; on the first floor, you will find a living room, parlor, dining room that seats 60, a fully equipped kitchen, and a cozy chapel. GFS branches and dioceses hold summer retreats at Holiday House. Senior GFS girls can work in the dining room and kitchen as a summer job. Please note that the bathrooms are communal by floor and there is not an elevator on the premises.
