FAQs
Question
Are kids invited?
Answer
We love your kids—we really do. But we want our wedding to be your night off! If you are unable to find a babysitter please feel free to e-mail us at Riesswedding314@yahoo.com
Question
How long is the ceremony?
Answer
Although this is a catholic wedding this will not be a full traditional mass. The ceremony should only last 25-30 minutes.
Question
What should I do inbetween the ceremony and reception?
Answer
While the wedding party is taking photos feel free to head back home before the reception or take the time to explore the area around The Christy! It's located 10-15 minutes from a lot of fun things to do. The Zoo/Forest Park, Tower Grove Park, Botanical Gardens, Maplewood shops and bars. Not from St. Louis? We can't think of a better day to try Ted Drews then on St. Louis Day! Located less than 8 minutes away! KEEP IN MIND IT DOES TAKE ABOUT 40 MINUTES TO TRAVEL FROM THE CHURCH TO THE RECEPTION.
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Cocktail, please. But we want you to feel comfortable, so if those shoes are too high or that top button is too tight, let it all hang loose.
