What should I wear?

This event is semi-formal, however, please keep in mind that we will be outdoors on the grass for the ceremony and cake reception - weather permitting - and that there is a short walk from the parking lot to the ceremony location. Additionally, we will be having games such as cornhole, soccer, football, etc. available. There is also a playground for those that have little ones (or those that are young at heart) and may be interested in playing on there.

Where do I park?

Please use the parking lot to the left-hand side of the building when facing the building. There will be signs and friends to guide you in the right direction. If parking gets filled, we will have some friends to help redirect cars to the parking lot on the right-hand side of the building.

What if it rains?

In the case of rain, we will be moving our wedding inside the church with the ceremony in the sanctuary. Guests will all be contacted the day prior in the event that our wedding is moved indoors.

Is there a difference between the cake reception and the closed reception?

Yes, there will be a cake reception for all guests at 4pm. There will also be a closed reception for close friends and immediate family. Those invited to the closed reception will receive a separate invite. Despite having a small reception, we would love to celebrate with everyone at the cake reception.

Is there a registry?

There is no registry on the ceremony invite. This is because there is no expectation for ceremony guests to purchase a gift off of our registry. If you would still like to purchase a gift, however, the link to our registry can be found at https://www.amazon.com/wedding/share/benjaminandval

What if I need a place to stay?

If you're in need of accommodations, please reach out to the bride and groom. We have several guests staying at the hotel below and can attempt to get a group discount rate. The Hampton Inn - Lockport 6082 Transit Road, Lockport, NY 14094
