While we love your kids, we have decided to keep our wedding and reception an adults-only event (the only exception are the little ones in our bridal party). We hope you understand, and use this night as a date night for yourselves!
We will be having two separate locations for our Ceremony & Reception! Ceremony @ Kaitlin's grandparents Farm: 7623 County Road E 53 Clarence, IA 52216 Reception @ Eastbank Venue & Lounge: 97 3rd Ave SE Cedar Rapids, IA 52401 The wedding reception venue is only a 6 min walk from the hotel :)
Our cut off date for RSVP’s is June 1st, 2025. If we do not get an RSVP back by the date which we have provided, it will be marked as a "no". An RSVP is required for everyone. It is essential in planning for the ceremony seating and reception meals.
Please visit the Travel/Details section of our wedding website to find more information on travel. If you have any questions at all regarding flights or travel PLEASE do not hesitate to reach out to us. We would love for you to be there with us and have no problem helping out and answering questions.
Yes! For the ceremony there will be plenty of parking on the farm. Please park your vehicles up by the large shop at the end of the lane. For the reception there are parking garages around our venue and street parking.
Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding.
The ceremony and cocktail hour will take place outdoors, and the reception will be held indoors. Please dress accordingly for the ceremony and make sure to check weather conditions leading up to the event. Please keep in mind that the ceremony primarily has grass and gravel terrain. If rain is in the forecast there will be a tent.
There is not a dress code mandatory, but would love our guest to dress up with us. Semi-formal attire is greatly appreciated. Ladies, please refrain from wearing any white, ivory, or champagne tones. Gentlemen, please refrain from wearing blue jeans.
Please feel free to reach out to Kaitlin prior to the wedding with any questions at 319-491-1630 or by email at dkricciardi@gmail.com. Please refrain from asking Kaitlin questions on the wedding weekend. Thanks in advance.
