We ask that you arrive twenty minutes before the ceremony which starts at four in the afternoon. The Gardenia is about an hour north of the Plano/North Dallas area so please allot the necessary time to arrive at the venue so we may start right at four.
For this evening we are requesting semi-formal attire. This means that tuxes and gowns are welcome, and so are suits and cocktail dresses. For men, you are invited to wear tuxes or suits. For women colorful summer gowns or cocktail dresses! Please refrain from wearing denim pants and white. We would love to see our loved ones dress up with us!
Unfortunately, only individuals specifically listed on the invitation can attend. If you have received a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. The good news is, you can meet so many new friends at the wedding!
While we love your little ones, due to limited spacing, we cannot accommodate everyone's children. Invitations will be specific and will include the names of the children who are invited if you choose to include them in this evening. We encourage you to use this evening as a fun night out!
We are requesting that our ceremony be a completely "unplugged" time. We want everyone to be fully present in this holy moment as we make our vows to each other and to God. We will have professional photographers and videographers at the wedding who will capture important moments and make those photos available to you all! However, after the ceremony feel free to take as many photos and videos as you would like!
