Are The Ceremony & Reception In The Same Place?
No! The ceremony will be held at The New Life Church in Sioux Center, and the reception will take place at the Terrace View Event Center after. Invitations and website have both addresses.
Where Should I Stay?
For guests coming from out of town, we've reserved a block of rooms at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites. The block will be available starting in October 2025, and you'll be able to make reservations at a special group rate. We’ll provide more details closer to the date! Check out the travel tab for more details!
When/How Do I RSVP?
We will update our wedding page with RSVP details closer to the date. You’ll find all the information you need to RSVP on the page at that time. We’ll make sure to keep you posted!
Can I Bring A Guest/Date/Kids?
Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate the individuals listed on the invitation. We truly hope you understand and look forward to celebrating with you!
What Is The Dress Code?
We want everyone to feel comfortable while still keeping it semi-formal. Think nice attire—like dresses or dress shirts for women, and button-ups or slacks for men. We want you to enjoy the day and feel great in whatever you choose to wear! Jeans are more than welcome as well!
What time should I arrive?
We kindly ask all guests to be in their seats 15 minutes before both the ceremony and reception start times. This helps us begin on time—and get the party started even sooner!
Will there be a transfer to the reception?
The church and event center are less than 2 miles apart, so there will not be a transfer. We ask that everyone drive to the event center after the ceremony and enjoy the cocktail hour with appetizers and drinks. There is a 30-minute window before the reception begins, giving you plenty of time to arrive and get settled in.
Can I take photos?
We kindly ask that during the ceremony, phones are either turned off or set to silent. We’ve hired our amazing photographer, Faith, to capture all the special moments, so we ask that phones stay put away until afterward. Once the reception begins, feel free to take as many photos as you’d like! Photos from Faith will be available at a later date.
Where can I find the photos afterward?
Carley will share the wedding photos on Facebook once they are fully edited. We’ll also try to post a link on Facebook to make it easier for friends and family to browse through all the pictures.
Who Do I Contact If I Have Questions?
If anything comes up, please feel free to reach out to Carley or Ethan directly—we’re happy to help! Before messaging us, we kindly ask that you check our wedding website first, as your question may already be answered there. We also ask that any questions be sent no later than one week before the wedding so we have time to soak in our big day while still being available to assist with anything you need.
