Where should we park?

The Franklin Park Conservatory offers free parking in the lots off of East Broad Street.

Will the wedding be indoor or outdoor?

Ideally, both. Weather permitting, the ceremony will be taking place inside the John F. Wolfe Palm House with the cocktail hour and reception being held outside on the Wolfe Terrace. Note that the Palm House is not temperature controlled. There are fans to keep air moving inside but temperatures inside the greenhouse are similar to the temperatures outside.

Can I bring a guest/date?

Due to limited capacity, we are only able to accommodate the guests specifically listed in your party when you RSVP. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Are children invited?

No.

What should I wear?

We are aiming for semi formal/cocktail attire for the dress code.

What time should I arrive to the ceremony?

We are asking for guests to arrive around 6:00PM to give you plenty of time to park, find the venue, and get settled before the ceremony begins.

What should I know if I'm traveling from out of town?

While Columbus has several great hotels and Airbnbs to choose from, there will be a big Ohio State football game the day after the wedding so we anticipate they might have less availability than usual. We have a block of rooms reserved at the Hilton Columbus Downtown that our guests are able to book before August 7th for a discounted rate. The website to book in our block is linked under the Hilton on our travel page. If you choose to book other accommodations, we just recommend getting that taken care of early. If you are flying into town, the closest airport is John Glenn International Airport (CMH).

Who should I text if I have questions?

Jimmy. Not because he has the answers but because I'm busy.
