Question
Can I walk around the mansion?
Answer
Yes, but with certain limitations. The third floor is closed unless you wish to arrive early and take the guided tour. We ask that you do not wander the grounds and please do not touch the furniture, as many of the pieces are original to the mansion or have been restored in a collection. That being said, we want you to have fun and enjoy the venue as much as we do. We encourage you to read the display pieces and learn about the very interesting venue we have chosen to be a part of our story.
Question
Can I take Pictures?
Answer
We are having an "unplugged ceremony," with no phones or cameras. The greatest gift you can give us is to be fully present during this once-in-a-lifetime experience. We know the bride and groom are absolutely stunning, so we promise to share all the wedding photos as soon as we receive them. We have hired professional photographers to capture the moment for us. After the ceremony feel free to take as many photos as you like! There will be tons to explore, photo booths, and much fun to be had!
