Formal Attire. Formal wedding attire sits between black tie and cocktail on the wedding dress code scale. It's slightly more elevated than cocktail attire and a touch less dressy than a black-tie nuptial. Men can wear a tuxedo, but they don’t have to — a dark suit and tie are also appropriate. For women this is traditionally an evening gown or elevated cocktail dress/jumpsuit. Need some outfit inspo? We got you: https://www.theknot.com/content/formal-wedding-attire
We love all of our friend’s and family's children! However, due to space restrictions our celebrations will be adult-only with the exception of children in the wedding party. There are several babysitting services that come highly recommended. These babysitting services will ask you about your children’s ages and specific needs so they may bring age appropriate toys and pair you with the perfect nanny for the evening. https://www.safersit.com/ https://www.elitenanniesondemand.com

Your guess is as good as ours… While we are optimistic that our special day will be nothing but sunshine and the perfect fall day, the weather is often unpredictable during this time of year. We recommend checking out the forecast of Cincinnati closer to the celebrations. Our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception will all be indoors with plenty of AC and/or heat as needed.
We will provide a full open bar with beer, cocktails and a selection of red and white wines. Cash tips are not expected, but graciously appreciated by our incredible bar staff.
Your presence is present enough, but should you wish to bring a gift to our wedding, there will be a gift table for your convenience.
The reception is planned to end at 11 PM with some late night snacks. For those who aren’t quite ready to say goodnight we recommend checking out the Renaissance’s Hotel Bar, D Burnham’s, which stays open until 1 AM.
