We got you! The ceremony is formal / semi-formal and in a church. Bride will be wearing a white gown and groom will be wearing a tuxedo - so we're on that vibe. Don't feel like you have to dress up super formally, but, for the ceremony, church appropriate (Sunday best) attire is appreciated. Reception is also formal / semi-formal; inside and outside during mid-end July in Pennsylvania (a.k.a. it's going to be warm!). Dress to have fun, maybe something on the breezier side! We just have the one, age-old rule: don't show up in a white gown! ;)

This is a Catholic Mass! Expect the length to be about an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes. Please try and be timely! Try to get there 15 minutes before the ceremony begins (3pm). If you are not Catholic or are not in a state of grace to receive the Holy Eucharist, please come up for a blessing instead if you feel comfortable! Just cross your arms over your chest and follow the crowd. The priest will also reiterate this during the mass.

The church and venue are 40 minutes away from each other! If you have a way to bring your own transportation that might be easiest. Carpooling could also be an option to make things easier. :) The reception starts later (6pm) for this reason.

Ah sorry! This part will be stressful I think :/ FOR THE CEREMONY: Plug this address into your GPS, that should take you to the parking lot behind the cathedral: 222 N 17th St, Philadelphia, PA 19103 Otherwise, there is street parking around. Sorry - downtown Philly right before rush hour. (Could have planned that a little better Elise and James) FOR THE RECEPTION: There is a plethora of parking at the venue, with a bit of a walk to the actual reception building. There will also be golf carts to take you from your car to the reception if that's what you prefer!

This could be traffic-dependent, but if you get back and are itching to do something, check out our "Things To Do" tab! IMPORTANT NOTE: We have also been asked to not show up to the venue before the reception starts (6pm)!

The PHL, Philadelphia airport will be the closest airport to everything, roughly 30 minutes. Other options could be the Newark airport and then you could take a train / car to your hotel or wherever you're staying, but the Philadelphia airport will be your closest bet!

RSVP on this website by June 22nd! Be sure to let us know what you would like for dinner; can't wait to see you there!!
