Question

What to wear?

Answer

The dress code is casual. What is "casual?" Martha Stewart's Wedding blog writer puts it this way - "At its most formal, it entails a sport coat. Button-downs, sweaters, and relaxed pants (chinos, khakis, etc.) are usually fine. In all cases, footwear's less restricted (boat shoes may be worn, for example). Ladies can wear a less-dressy dress. More casual shoes, like sandals or flats, are appropriate here."

Question

Is it going to be hot?

Answer

Um, yes. The Wedding Ceremony will be outdoors. The Machine Shop is air-conditioned. It's an early guess, but here the Accuweather forecast for July 8 states: 87°HI RealFeel® 99° Precipitation 60% Partly sunny, a couple of showers and a thunderstorm

Question

What is the Machine Shop?

Answer

The first cotton mill for the Roswell Manufacturing Company was opened in 1839. Power for the mill was provided by harnessing the water power from Vickery Creek. By the Civil War, two cotton mills and one woolen mill were in full operation. During the Civil War, the Roswell Mills were leading manufacturers of materials used for the Confederacy. When Union troops came to Roswell in 1864, their orders were to burn the mills. The only mill building left standing was the machine shop. After the war, the mills were rebuilt. The mill standing today was built in 1882. It has been restored as offices. The Pre-Civil war mill ruins are part of Old Mill Park with hiking trails, interpretive signs and a pedestrian bridge that connects the Roswell trails to the Chattahoochee River National Park trail on the other side of Vickery Creek.
