Question

Can I bring my child along?

Answer

As the youngest members of large extended families, the bride and groom are fortunate to have more than 30 little ones in their growing family trees. The wedding ceremony and reception will be adults-only, except for their two very special flower girls. Recognizing that traveling with little ones can be a challenge, children are warmly welcomed to attend other wedding weekend festivities, including the welcome party. Thank you for your understanding and for helping make this celebration so special!

Question

Will you have shuttle transportation?

Answer

At this time, we are not planning to provide shuttle transportation. We expect many of our guests will choose to stay in vacation rentals or other scenic hotels rather than within our hotel block, so a shuttle may not be the most practical option. If, as the wedding approaches, we determine that shuttle service to and from several hotels of the in the area would be beneficial, we'll make the necessary arrangements and update this page with the details.
