FAQs

Question

Is there parking at the Venue?

Answer

Yes! There’s plenty of parking available at both the church (St. Mary Help of Christians) and the reception venue (Rolling Ridge). While you’re welcome to Uber to the church, catching a ride back might be tricky since it's a bit outside of town. We recommend planning ahead—carpooling is always a great option! See below about late night shuttle from Rolling Ridge to the hotel.

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

The Wedding Ceremony starts at 2pm. We ask that all guests are seated by 1:45pm.

Question

Will the ceremony/reception be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony will be held indoors at St. Mary Help of Christians Church. The reception at Rolling Ridge will be a mix of both—dinner will be indoors, but the dancing and celebrating will take place outside in the courtyard (weather permitting). Rolling Ridge has plenty of beautiful outdoor space to explore, so feel free to wander and enjoy the scenery! Ps: Plenty of spots for great photoshoots:)

Question

Is there a late night shuttle?

Answer

A late night shuttle will run between Rolling Ridge and the hotel, making trips back and forth between **10pm-12am.** Guests are welcome to leave their cars parked at Rolling Ridge overnight but we ask to please have them picked up by **9am** the next morning. Guests can also Uber or Lyft from the hotel and plan to catch the shuttle back at the end of the night.

Question

Is there a Dress Code?

Answer

Yes! We kindly ask that guests wear semi-formal to formal attire. Think cocktail dresses, suits, or something you'd wear to a nice evening out. We love you, but please leave the jeans and shorts at home for this one!

Question

What if I forget to RSVP?

Answer

If we don’t hear from you by the RSVP deadline (July 1st), we’ll have to assume you’re partying with us in spirit—but not in person. As much as we’d love to be flexible, our venue needs a final headcount, and we have to stick to their timeline. So please RSVP on time—we really want to celebrate with you!
