We are planning for both the ceremony and reception to be held indoors at Harvest Moon Pond. The ceremony is scheduled to be held in the loft and the reception is scheduled to be held on the main floor. However, our venue does have an outdoor patio that we plan to utilize should the weather be ideal on our wedding day.
Cocktail Attire, Semi-Formal, or Dressy Casual: All three of these options ask guests to dress somewhere between formal and casual. We recommend a cocktail dress, pantsuit, dressy top/button up and pants, suit and tie, or sport coat. No jeans.
If you received an invitation that says, "and guest," absolutely! Otherwise, due to venue restrictions, we are unable to accommodate unexpected guests. We have already had to make some tough decisions regarding our guest list and appreciate your understanding!
Similar to our "can I bring a date" response (above)... If you received an invitation that includes children, then yes, absolutely! Otherwise, due to venue restrictions, we are unable to accommodate unexpected guests. We have already had to make some tough decisions regarding our guest list and appreciate your understanding!
There is on-site parking to accommodate the maximum number of guests allowed at the venue, which is 200. Parking is free. Guests may leave their vehicles overnight if necessary. All vehicles must be retrieved by 9:00am on Saturday morning or they will be towed. If you plan to Uber/Lyft, please be aware that cell phone service might be spotty depending on your provider.
Our wedding is about our love for each other, our family and friends, and togetherness. Please refrain from any conversation(s) that would divide us. We hope you can understand and respect our efforts to create an enjoyable experience for all.
We do ask that you refrain from taking photos and video during the ceremony as we have hired professionals to do so. Feel free to take photos and video during the reception, but be mindful of our photographers/videographers and please give them the "right of way."
Yes! We strongly encourage you to use our wedding hashtag on social media and cannot wait to see your photos from our wedding day! #PlusOneHalverson
We would prefer that you email LeighAnn Gontarek at LAGontarek@gmail.com with any additional questions and depending on the question, she may refer you to our Wedding Coordinator, Erika.
