Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
As much as we love your little ones, we will not be including them in the ceremony or reception. However, we know that some of you will be traveling with your kids, so please know they are welcome at the Saturday picnic! If you'd like to get some information on local babysitting services/options please reach out to Dan or Terri. One service we have heard good things about is https://www.eventnannies.com.au/
Question
What will the weather be like?
Answer
Welcome to Melbourne, all of you out-of-towners! The weather here can be unpredictable! During the day, we're hoping it will be reasonably warm (the average high is around 24 degrees). The average low overnight is 15 degrees. But as the Australian band Crowded House noted, Melbourne is known to have 4 seasons in one day so be prepared for anything!

Question
What kind of shoes should/shouldn't I wear?

We're asking guests to arrive at 3:15pm for a 3:30pm start to the ceremony
Question
I am coming from out of town. Where should I stay?
Answer
We've listed some potential accommodation options under the Travel section. Unfortunately there are fairly limited options nearby the venue itself, but you may be able to find some additional gems on AirBnB. One of the charter buses will be running from the Melton Motor Inn (which has a range of rooms available), and the other from Southern Cross Station in the CBD which is near lots of accommodation options
Question
Where should I park?
Answer
If driving to Warrawong Estate there is plenty of free parking on the property near the entrance to the wedding venue
Question
What time will the reception end?
Answer
They will be kicking us out at midnight, with the two charter buses departing shortly afterwards
Question
Is it OK to take pictures during the ceremony?
Answer
Ideally we'd prefer you didn't as we'll have a professional photographer to capture the moment
Question
Is there a gifts registry?
Answer
Having you at our wedding is the greatest gift of all :) For traditionalists, there will be a wishing well on the day
