Where is the ceremony and reception taking place?
The ceremony will be held in the intimate sanctuary at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, a place that holds deep family significance for us. Immediately following, we’ll gather for the reception at the picnic grounds on the church property, surrounded by spring blooms and mountain air.

Are kids welcome?
Of course! We would love to celebrate with your little ones. We will make accommodations for a safe play area at the reception as well as a quiet area for any cooling down or resting needs. We don't wish for you to miss any time during the ceremony. We encourage you to bring tools like quiet sensory toys or books to help them sit quietly. Please let us know if we can help you with any specific accommodations.
Can I bring a plus one?
If your invitation includes a guest, we would love for them to join! Otherwise, we are keeping the celebration intimate and appreciate your understanding.
What should I wear?
Dressy is ideal — with our wildflower theme, we encourage you to dress in your bright spring and summer colors. Bring out the florals and fun patterns. Try swapping your blacks to a navy blue or khaki color. Think garden-party attire with comfortable shoes for the grassy reception space. Light layers are encouraged in case of an early spring mountain breeze.
Where should I park?
Guests may park in the church lot. From there, signage will guide you to the sanctuary and picnic grounds.
Will there be a meal provided?
Yes! A delicious meal will be served at the reception featuring fresh, seasonal fare.
Are there vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free options?
Yes — we want all guests to feel well-fed and welcome. Please let us know about any dietary needs when you RSVP.
Will the ceremony and reception be indoors or outdoors?
The ceremony will be held indoors in the church sanctuary. The reception will take place outdoors at the picnic grounds, weather permitting.
Is the venue accessible for guests with disabilities?
Yes, both the sanctuary and the reception area are accessible. Pleasant Hill Baptist Church has an elevator for wheelchair and other accessible needs. Please reach out in advance if we can assist in any way.
What happens if it rains?
We’ll have covered spaces prepared to ensure guests stay comfortable and dry — no matter what the forecast holds. However, we do plan to hold the reception in the church's fellowship hall as a back up to more severe weather forecasts.
Will there be dancing or other activities?
Yes! Expect great music, lighthearted games, and an atmosphere of relaxed celebration. Come ready to enjoy yourself.
