Ceremony begins at 2:00 PM and will last approximately one hour. *We highly encourage guests to bring a snack and silent entertainment for the little ones.* An indoor cocktail hour begins at 6:00 PM. Reception and dinner begin at 7:00 PM and the reception ends at 11:00 PM.

St. Xavier holds mass at 4:00 PM on Saturdays. Therefore, the church performs weddings at either 2 PM or 6 PM. We chose 2 PM to ensure we would have plenty of time to take photos and greet our guests at cocktail hour.

If you are an out of town guest, feel free to check into your hotel and relax for a bit. Change into your dancing shoes, explore the city, and hydrate for the festivities to come. There will be an Art and Light Festival downtown on Saturday called Blink. Feel free to explore and checkout the amazing art exhibits! For more recommendations, visit our "Things to Do" page.

Yes. Wine and beer during cocktail hour. Then, starting with dinner service at 7 PM, there will be a full-service bar until 10:30 PM. *please drink responsibly*

Attire is formal, black-tie optional. Some examples include floor-length gowns, formal cocktail dresses and pantsuits, suits with ties, and tuxedos. With that said, we plan on dancing. Therefore, we highly recommend comfortable shoes for the reception!

We are registered on The Knot and through Amazon. We have also started a honeymoon fund for our next big adventure together. If you would like to make a contribution, please see our Registry page for more details.
