VENUE SPECIFIC INFO IN REGARDS TO COVID-19











There are currently no formal restrictions and requirements for our wedding at this time. In phase three of Governor Kelly's "Ad Astra: A Plan to Reopen Kansas", the recommendation for gatherings is at 45 people.&nbsp;The W Banquet Hall&nbsp;occupancy according to the Fire Marshall is 275&nbsp;people. Our wedding party and guests total 35%&nbsp;occupancy and therefore there is plenty of room to social distance. The venue is privately owned and they do not have the requirement to wear masks. Although, we recommend guests wear face masks and will be providing them near the entrance. If there is a city, county, state, or federal mandate put into place instead of a recommendation, then we will have to reschedule the wedding.









 









 

















We appreciate our family being so accommodating during this time. We understand if you do not feel comfortable attending our celebration but if you would like to celebrate virtually we will be posting a link to live stream our ceremony.&nbsp;
