FAQs
Question
Why is 'Good things come to those who wait' on your save the date?
Answer
Its a Slogan for Guinness! From Wikipedia: "Their proposal was to turn around the negative consumer opinion of the length of time required to correctly pour a pint of Guinness from the tap, usually quoted as 119.5 seconds, as well as to encourage bartenders to take the time to do so." Since we dated 5 years before getting engaged, we thought it was a fitting parallel :)

Is there a dress code?

Semi Formal/Summer Cocktail is preferred. Please keep in mind that Ohio can get hot in the summers (75-85 degrees is common) and Parker Barn will not have AC. We will however have plenty of fans and open air inside to ensure everyone is comfortable during the reception. The reception venue is also surrounded by beautiful outdoor grassy area where we will have yard games available- Please keep this in mind when considering you shoe choice. Above all, we prefer that you be comfortable in whatever you choose to wear :)

Question
I'm not Catholic, Can I still attend the Wedding Mass?
Answer
Yes Please! We welcome friends from any and all Religious backgrounds to join us for the Nuptial Mass. The Mass is a central part of our Catholic faith, during which we truly believe that Jesus Christ is present in the Eucharist. During the receiving of the Eucharist, only Catholics in a state of grace may come forward to receive. Any non-Catholics or Catholics that aren't prepared to receive are asked to remain prayerfully in their seats or may come forward to receive a blessing by crossing their hands over their chest. If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us!
