We ask that all our friends and family dress for the occasion in Black-Tie Optional. Men may wear a tuxedo or a dark suit and women may wear a floor-length evening gown.
Who is invited to the wedding?
If your invitation is addressed “Mr and Mrs,” then you and your husband are invited to attend our celebration! If your invitation is addressed “Mr and Mrs and Family,” then your little ones are welcome to attend as well! If you are still unsure, please check the Knot RSVPs on our website and type in your name to see who in your party is invited. Please do not RSVP for people that are not addressed on your invitation.
When is the RSVP deadline?
Receiving your RSVP by July 1st will give us adequate time to get our final head count to all our vendors! If we have not heard from you by then, we will assume you are unable to attend.
What time does the ceremony begin?
The Wedding Mass will begin promptly at 6:00 pm. Please allow yourself adequate time to get to the venue by arriving at least 15 minutes early.
Are there room blocks for the wedding guests?
Yes! Currently, we have room blocks from Thursday-Sunday at the Kinley hotel and at the Fairfield Inn. More details are in the Travel section of our website. We urge you to book rooms as soon as possible since there is a big concert and a baseball game in town the weekend of the wedding, and we expect hotels to fill up quickly.
Is the Wedding indoor or outdoor?
The Wedding Ceremony will be held indoors, in the Cathedral. The cocktail hour will take place outdoors, on the patio connected to the Belle Event Center. Event staff will lead guests to the reception hall before the reception begins. The weather in Cincinnati in August could range from 65-85°F. If heavy rain decides to interfere, the cocktail hour will be moved indoors.
Should we bring a gift?
We greatly appreciate your generosity and wanting to help us by contributing to our new life together! Currently we live in a small space, and shopping our registry is the best way to gift us things we need for our new life and home. We are so exceptionally grateful!
How do we get to Cincinnati?
CVG is the closest airport to us. It’s a relatively small airport, but has direct flights all over the country! The airport is about 20 minutes from Downtown.
