Question

Is there any updated COVID-19 information for the big day?

Answer

Due to the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic, we will continue to monitor any updates on precautions or restrictions in Lititz and Lancaster County as the wedding approaches. If the COVID-19 climate worsens, it is possible that masks will be required by our venue to be worn at our ceremony and reception due to both being held indoors. We are thinking of and respecting everyone's safety during this time and especially want our big day to be as safe and enjoyable as possible! If you experience any symptoms similar to COVID-19 close to or on our wedding day, please be mindful when making the decision to attend our wedding considering the safety of yourself, our other guests, and our vendors. Thank you for your understanding and for respecting everyone's safety!

Question

Will I have to travel between the ceremony and reception?

Answer

No! The ceremony begins promptly at 3:30pm at Brick Gables with cocktail hour and reception to follow also at Brick Gables. Everything is at the same venue to make it easy for you to enjoy the day with us! Shuttles are also available to/from The Wilbur Hotel for any guests staying over in Lititz. Shuttles will be provided by Shultz Transportation (school bus) from The Wilbur Hotel to/from Brick Gables for your convenience. Shuttles will depart this hotel at 2:45pm and 3:00pm to bring guests to the ceremony at Brick Gables (starting at 3:30pm).
