You can click the RSVP tab above and RSVP any time after you have received your invitation. We will include a paper RSVP with the invite if you prefer to mail your RSVP back to us! Kindly, list yourself and other invited loved ones on this RSVP!

You will definitely be missed! If you cannot attend our wedding, please indicate "Will NOT Attend" on your RSVP so we can plan accordingly. If you have already RSVP'd "Attending", but find that you will not make it, please notify Kim as soon as you are aware.

If you don't RSVP by June 1st, 2026 -- you will be marked as "not attending". We would love celebrating with you, however, we have to provide an exact guest count to our vendors and cannot accept a late RSVP. (Unfortunately, this will mean you are not allowed to show up to our special day. There will be no seating, food, or drink accommodations for you.)

Due to our limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. Your invite will be made out to "(Your Name) & Guest" if a plus one has been given to you. Thank you for understanding!

We recommend arriving 30 minutes before the ceremony time to ensure you’re seated and ready for the festivities.

The ceremony will be held outside. The reception will take place indoors.

Dress to impress! Our wedding is Formal, meaning women should wear ankle or knee length dresses or jumpsuits. Please do not wear white. For men, a formal tuxedo, matching suit, or nice button up shirt and slacks. Please no casual/streetwear, for example, no t-shirts or gym shoes. We can’t wait to see you all dressed up!

Please use the link provided under the Travel tab on our wedding website or call the front desk of Hilton Garden Inn. When booking your room, you must specify that you are attending the Rader Clanton Wedding so that you can get the discounted room rate!

The hotel agrees to hold our room block until the Cut -Off date specified in the agreement (6/10/2026). Reservations must be received on or before the Cut-Off Date. At that time any unreserved rooms will be released to the Hotel for general sale. Reservations received after the cut-off date will be on a space and rate available basis only.

Friday, 07/10/2026 & Saturday, 07/11/2026 These are the nights available for the invited guests to stay and are eligible for the discounted price. Please keep in mind, cut off date for hotel reservation is 6/10/2026. Otherwise, you may have to pay regular room price rates depending on availability if you book your room after this date.

Check in time at the Hilton Garden Inn South Bend is 3:00pm and check out time is 12 noon. Guests arriving before check in time will be accommodated as rooms become available. Our Front Desk Staff can arrange to check baggage for those arriving early when rooms are not available and for guests attending functions on their day of departure. Hotel will impose a $50.00 early departure fee for all guests who register for a specified length of stay and check out early. The front desk staff will make every effort to confirm the guest’s departure date upon check-in to minimize any confusion.

Cancel as soon as possible! Any individual room cancellations within 72 hours from the date of arrival will be billed for one (1) night’s room and tax. Any individual room who fails to check in, or attempts to cancel within 72 hours of scheduled arrival, will be billed one night’s room and tax.

We will be supplying alcohol and have a bartending service who will be handling beverages. Due to venue policy and regulations, you are not allowed to bring any other alcoholic beverages onto the premises.

We kindly ask that you hold off on taking any photos or videos during the ceremony. We’d love for you to be fully present and enjoy the moment with us. The greatest gift you can give us is being fully present as we say "I do". Our professional photographer and videographer will be capturing everything, and we’ll happily share those memories after the wedding! That said, we absolutely welcome photos and videos during the reception! Feel free to snap pictures, record videos, and don’t hesitate to ask us for a photo together — we’d love to capture those moments with you!
