Please arrive by 5:45 for the champagne toast in the main lobby before the ceremony and then make your way to the beautiful Chapel by 6:00pm to get settled in so that the ceremony can get started on time.

As you leave the ceremony, you will walk to the cocktail hour that is just steps away from the Chapel. There are three or four spacious rooms for you to enjoy cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. You also have the option to enjoy the outdoor cocktail hour area that will be furnished with heat lamps. The choice is yours... so make some new friends or reconnect with friends and family you haven't seen in quite some time.

After the amazing cocktail hour, please head to the ballroom at 8:00pm which is steps away from the cocktail hour. We will be dancing and celebrating until 12am, so please make sure you get a good night's rest the night before (or take a nap in the afternoon) so that we can party like adults until the midnight hour. If you find that you might need to take a break from all of the dancing and you enjoy a good cigar, feel free to bring your favorite stogies, as there will be a separate room away from the reception to sit and enjoy a fine smoke, a smooth bourbon, good conversation, and a little break from the action.

After you had fun at our wedding, you're definitely not going to be ready to go home or go to sleep and we don't want you too! If you're staying at the hotel, go put on your comfy clothes and come ready to toast the newleyweds and spread some holiday cheer! If you're not staying with us overnight, please stop by the lobby bar at the Chateau Grande Hotel which is steps away from the venue itself, and come be social and unwind a little bit before you travel home.
