Yes, but with the hustle and bustle of downtown Charlotte, we recommend ride-share or walking from one of the nearby hotel blocks to the rehearsal dinner and ceremony. If you wish to drive, **free** parking for St. Peter Catholic Church is located in “The Green” parking deck. This is a below ground deck which can be accessed via South Tryon Street (immediately next to the church entrance), or South College Street. St. Peter’s parking is on the Level P2 blue section. There are two elevators which will take you to the street level/The Green Park. Parishioners and guests may validate their ticket for any church event or visit. This deck is also the same one that would be used for the rehearsal dinner, as the locations are catty-corner. Quail Hollow Club is about a twenty minute drive from St. Peter. We again recommend ride-share for ease of pickup from downtown, but there is plenty of parking at Quail Hollow. You are allowed to leave cars overnight in the lot, if needed.
Men have the option of wearing a tuxedo or formal dark suit, white shirt, and tie. Women may wear a floor-length gown, fancy cocktail dress or dressy pant suit. The reception will take place at an indoor/outdoor venue, so we recommend bringing outerwear if it is chilly!
The ceremony will start promptly at 2:00pm. Please arrive and take your seat no later than 1:40pm. We are at maximum capacity in our church, so please plan to utilize the entire pew. Our guests will get to know each other very well!
Feel free to walk around The Green next to the church, take photos, use this time to freshen up, do an outfit change, or enjoy any of the fun things to do in Charlotte! Quail Hollow is about 20 minutes from the church, so there should not be too much of a gap. Please do not arrive early to the reception site as the vendors will still be setting up.
Although we love your little ones, we want you to relax and enjoy this celebration as a night off! Adults only, please!
No. We kindly ask that you turn off all cell phones and cameras during the ceremony. Please remember this is a church and the professional photographer is the only person allowed to photograph the ceremony.
