Question

Can I bring a date or an additional guest?

Answer

Please contact the bride or bride's mother before bringing an additional guest. We have worked with the caterer to plan for the expected number of guests, and we do not want anyone to feel left out should we not have enough on hand for unexpected guests. We are also limited on the number of people who can be accommodated at the church and reception venue.

Question

Will alcoholic beverages be served?

Answer

No alcoholic beverages will be served at the wedding reception. Please do not bring your own alcohol. We chose not to apply for an alcohol permit, so alcohol will not be permitted on the venue premises. We want this to be family friendly time of fun and fellowship!

Question

What weather should I expect?
