What is the dress code?

We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! The dress code is semi-formal, so think cocktail dresses, button-down shirts/sport coats, and anything of the like. While we do want you to be comfortable and feel your best, we ask to please refrain from wearing jeans/denim & avoid shades of white. Note that the ceremony is planned to be outdoors on the deck; however, in case of inclement weather, we may move the ceremony indoors. Please come prepared!

Can I bring a guest/date?

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!

Are kids allowed?

This will be an adults-only event. We so appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us!

By when do we need to RSVP?

Please RSVP by October 1, 2024 using the online RSVP tab in the website menu. If you do not RSVP in time, we will assume you are unable to attend.

What time should we arrive?

The ceremony will begin at 6 p.m. sharp. Please plan to arrive at least 15-30 minutes prior to allow time for parking, finding your seat, and to minimize disruption.

Where do I park?

Our venue has free on-site parking in the top parking lot and in a bottom overflow parking lot (with shuttle services). We will also have a complimentary, optional shuttle school bus chartering guests in who choose to park/stay at the blocked hotels in O'Fallon, MO. Pick-up and drop-off times will be continuous throughout the evening.

May I take pictures during the ceremony?

We are having an unplugged ceremony, meaning that once the ceremony begins, we ask that all phones and personal cameras be put away and silenced. We want everyone to be fully present with us and for our professional photographer to be able to capture the moment without interference. After the ceremony is over, feel free to go photo-crazy!

Will there be an open bar?

Yes! The drinks are on us and the hangover is on you - get ready to party! For this reason, we also highly encourage utilizing our shuttle school bus, staying overnight in the area, and considering Uber/Lyft to ensure everyone gets home safely.
