We have a short gap between our ceremony and reception. We encourage guests to enjoy some of our local favorites in New Bedford!
Yes, if they are included on the invitation they are invited to join us for our special day.
Please arrive at The Holy Name the Sacred Heart by 1:00 PM to be seated and avoid seeing the bride before the ceremony.
We respectfully ask that all guests honor the sanctity of this moment by turning off cell phones and cameras to be fully present with us.
While we would love to accommodate everyone, the space at our venue is limited. If your invitation says "and Guest" then yes, if not, we would prefer if it was just you.
Semi-Formal: Tuxes and gowns are welcome, and so are suits and cocktail dresses.
