To make sure we start the wedding ceremony on time, we kindly ask that you arrive and be seated between 1:00-1:20pm. The groomsmen and bridal party will be ready by 1:20pm at the front doors and this will help to avoid foot traffic at the front of the Church.
The ceremony will be a full Catholic Mass and wedding ceremony. It is estimated to be 1 hour and 15 minutes long, with photos conducted in the Church afterwards. We understand that it is a long ceremony, but please refrain from bringing food or drink into the Church.
There will be a slight gap between the end of the ceremony and the time we are able to arrive at the reception. Cocktail hour will be 4pm-5pm at Shepard Hills. Please take this time to refresh and relax at your hotel before the party begins.
Yes! Kids are welcome and encouraged to attend the wedding ceremony and reception.
