Question
Can I bring a plus one?
Answer
Due to the limited space we have at our reception venue, we will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. Thank you for understanding!
Question
Can I take photos/videos of the wedding?
Answer
Our photographer has been instructed to tackle you and violently destroy your device if he finds that any phones or other recording devices are obstructing him from doing his job. Likewise, the groomsmen have been instructed to do the same if they hear your device make any noise during the ceremony. Our wedding mass is a time of reverence. We invite you to join in the spirit of our union as husband and wife.
Question
I'm not Catholic, what should I do during communion?
Answer
You can either walk in the communion line with others and cross your arms over your chest to receive a blessing or remain quietly in your pew. If you are not Catholic, you should not receive communion. We do not ask you to share our beliefs, but we do ask you to recognize this tradition's importance for us and be respectful.

Question
What time should I arrive?
Answer
The times for the ceremony and reception can be found on your invitation. We ask that you arrive to the ceremony with enough time to park and find a seat before the start of mass. Please plan accordingly so you don't have to walk in late and have everyone stare at you.
Question
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
Answer
The ceremony will be indoors and the reception will be outdoors in a covered pavilion. Please check the weather the day of and dress accordingly. We will not be moving the reception inside because it is "too cold" or "too hot."
Question
Where should I park?
Answer
There is a small parking lot at Saint Stanislaus Church. If this lot fills up, street parking is also available. There is a parking lot attached to the 8820. If you are worried about parking, please consider carpooling with other guests.
Question
Can I bring my kids?
Answer
Yes! We are happy to celebrate with you and your children, but be warned, Catholic wedding masses are long, and your children will find them boring, so consider bringing some quiet toys if you feel you might need them for the ceremony. Please also be advised that there will be breakable glass as well as a campfire at the reception, so please keep small children close to you. As stated above, please refrain from bringing guests who are not listed on your invitation. If you believe we forgot any members of your party, please reach out and let us know.
