Question

Are children invited?

Answer

We absolutely adore all of our little ones, but we’ve decided to keep the evening adults-only. We want our parents to fully enjoy a kid-free night of dancing, delicious food, and celebration. We hope you understand and know we’ll be raising a glass to the kiddos in spirit!

Will there be food and drinks?

Answer

Yes! A delightful selection of appetizers will be served during the cocktail hour, followed by a buffet dinner during the reception.

Late-night pizza will be served, fresh from the venue’s very own pizza oven!
