We have chosen to skip the idea of physical gifts. Under the registry tab, we've included the link to purchase gift cards to the Hershey, PA resort where we'll be spending our honeymoon. Gift cards can be used to buy dinner, choose spa treatments, or treat ourselves to chocolate-covered strawberries.
The ceremony is slated to be held outside, weather permitting, so first and foremost please take note of the forecast. The dress code for our wedding is semi-formal/cocktail attire.
The ceremony is scheduled for five o'clock in the evening. We recommend guests arrive at four-thirty to provide enough time to get everyone seated and settled.
Once you pull up to the mansion, you will see a small parking lot. This area is reserved for vendors and staff attending the event as well as emergency vehicles; there are also two handicap-accessible parking spaces for those who need them. For all other guests, please follow the signs pointing towards the parking lot at the bottom of the hill. We have arranged for a golf cart to escort guests to the mansion if they are uncomfortable making the walk.
Yes! We welcome you to take photographs during the cocktail hour and reception, but please respect our wishes to keep the ceremony tech-free. We want to experience this momentous occasion with you, in the moment, rather than have you be preoccupied by getting the perfect shot. We have hired a professional photographer and plan to share with you all of the beautiful moments. Feel free to upload your own photos with the hashtag #theperksofbeingaperkins
We have planned for a cocktail hour immediately after the ceremony which will include an assortment of finger-food such as meats and cheeses, fruit with yogurt dip, as well as passed hors d'oeuvres; a seated dinner will follow inside the Liriodendron mansion. Various beverages will be made available at the bar. All beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages are complimentary. For those who wish to celebrate with a little more vigor, mixed drinks will be available at five to six dollars per beverage.
Special dietary needs will be accommodated. Please include any and all dietary needs and restrictions with your RSVP.
If you have any questions that you do not note here, please do not hesitate to reach out to the maid-of-honor Emily Dobash at 443-480-5215.
