When should we RSVP by?

What is the dress code for the wedding?

The dress code for our wedding is colorful formal attire. For men, this includes a suit, dress shirt, and tie. Women are encouraged to wear a knee-to-floor length gown or a dressy jumpsuit. Feel free to wear something colorful to match our garden venue! Our wedding colors are green, blue, and yellow.

Is there an open bar?

Yes, there will be an open bar and craft non-alcoholic drinks. Please plan on providing gratuity for the bartenders. As always, drink responsibly :)

What time should we arrive for the ceremony and reception?

We encourage you to arrive for the ceremony at 5:30pm. For the reception, doors will open at 7:15pm.

Is there a wedding registry, and how can we access it?

We appreciate your thoughtfulness! Click the "Our Registry" tab to access our registry on Blueprint.com

Is transportation provided, or should we arrange our own?

There will be a trolly that will escort you from the entrance of the venue to the ceremony space. Besides this trolly, guests will need to plan their own transportation. Our reception space is approximately 10 minutes away from Fredrik Meijer Gardens and walking distance to our hotel room block.

Are children invited to the wedding?

Considering limited venue space, we've opted for an adults-only wedding for our guests. Thank you for your understanding.

What should we do after the ceremony?

After the ceremony, the bride and groom will be taking some personal time and portrait photos with their photographer. There will be a gap in time between the end of the ceremony and the reception. During this time, you are welcome to explore the beautiful gardens and sculptures at Fredrik Meijer Gardens.

Can we bring a plus one to the wedding?

In consideration of our limited venue space, our wedding is RSVP only. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation.

Is there a plan for inclement weather if the wedding is outdoors?

Our ceremony will be held outdoors. In the case of inclement weather, we will have the ceremony in an indoor space at the same venue.
