Are children invited?
While we love your little ones, our wedding will be an adults-only event. We hope you enjoy a night out to let loose and celebrate with us!
Can I bring a plus one?
We're so excited to celebrate with our closest friends and family! Due to capacity limitations, we're only able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. We appreciate your understanding!
What is the dress code?
We kindly ask our guests to dress in formal attire. Suits, mid-full length dresses, or dressy separates will be perfect. Tuxedos are not necessary. We encourage you to have fun and lean into Spring with us - pastels and florals are welcomed!
What should we do between the ceremony and reception?
Classic Catholic gap! Explore campus town, drive by the AGR and Chi Omega houses, take a nap, or maybe even pop in for a drink at the Red Lion where Bennett proudly managed and bartended. (JK, wouldn't recommend that.)
Downtown Champaign is a short drive from both the church and the reception, and is home to many of our favorite bars and restaurants. Barrel House, Pour Bros, Pour Collective, Punch, or the ever iconic Tumble Inn are all safe bets.
Will transportation be provided to and from the hotel to the reception venue?
We will not be providing transportation to and from the hotels to the venue. We encourage you to carpool, and for those of you who plan to drink, Champaign will have plenty of Uber and Lyfts available.
Will parking be available on site?
There will be metered spots available on S Sixth St. and Chalmers, as well as parking in lot E3 on E Armory & S Sixth St. Carpooling is encouraged as open spots are unpredictable.
Please pay your meters! Champaign is not afraid to give tickets or tow!
There will be ample parking at the Champaign Country Club.
Will we be indoors or outdoors?
We will be indoors for the ceremony, dinner, and dancing. We will be outdoors for cocktail hour, weather permitting.
