Answer

If you are staying at the Rose Hotel, we will provide transportation to the Chapel and Museum. If you are not staying at the hotel, but wish to hop on the transportation with the group, we welcome that! Please arrive to the hotel by 5PM for a 5:15PM departure. Also, let Lisa and Andrew know you plan to join the shuttle. If you are driving yourself to the venue, please note that parking at the Chapel is very limited. Parking will be held for the shuttle and Bride and Groom transportation. If you drive yourself, you may need to park down in the Museum parking lot and walk up a trail to the Chapel.

Answer

We cannot wait to celebrate with you! Of course you can take photos during the cocktail hour and reception/dinner, but do not use your phone during the ceremony in the Chapel. We will be sure to send photos around to everyone once we receive them from the photographer! Out of respect for our family and friends with children, please do not post photos of the little ones on the internet.
