We want to get fancy! Dress is formal.

While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us.

The ceremony will have plenty of parking in the church parking lot. The reception venue is about a 10-minute drive. If possible, we recommend carpooling to help with parking at the reception venue. There are public parking lots nearby.

The ceremony will take place indoors. Our reception venue has both indoor and outdoor space. Weather permitting, the dance floor will be out in the open courtyard.

We know that being late is kind of our thing, but we are going to try to stay on schedule for our big day! We recommend getting to the church by 1:45pm to find a seat and listen to the curated songs before we walk down the aisle at 2pm.

Good question! The ceremony will be traditional, with readings from the Bible, songs, and prayers. When communion is offered and you are not Catholic, you may choose to stay seated or join the other guests and receive a blessing instead of the holy sacrament. Simply cross your arms over your chest to let the priest know. Helpful tips and details will also be included in your formal invitation. For a good run-down on when to stand and sit, the bride recommends checking out this website: https://www.weddingwire.com/wedding-ideas/catholic-wedding-vows.

After the ceremony, the wedding party and immediate family members of the bride and groom will be taking pictures at the church and reception venue for approximately one hour. Guests can head straight to the reception venue for cocktail hour with music, food, and drinks.

You know Leann is a foodie, so you'll be well taken care of. The cocktail hour will feature hors d'oeuvres and (of course) cocktails to get the party started. A buffet dinner will follow, with a variety of vegetarian and meat options. We will have an open bar until 8pm to help with your dance moves. We'll top off the evening with, you guessed it, speciality donuts.

If you were offered a plus one, absolutely! But please know that making a guest list for a wedding is tough. Due to budget and venue capacity, this is an RSVP-only event. We kindly ask that only those listed on your invitation attend.

We will need to confirm a final headcount to our reception venue no later than September 1. Please be sure to have your RSVPs in the mail or respond online to allow for us to make any necessary adjustments.

We will have a professional photographer and videographer there to capture all our big and best moments. We kindly ask that you keep your personal cameras and phones away during our ceremony so that you don't accidentally block view for the professionals. Feel free to take as many photos as you possibly want during the reception. There will be booze and dancing, and we want to see EVERYTHING.

Help us see all your fun photos and videos from the night! Please be sure to tag us (@LannieNicole, @pvranesh) and include #YouCanPaulwaysLeannOnMe

Since we will be combining two households worth of stuff, we've opted out of a traditional wedding registry. If you'd still like to purchase a wedding gift, we have a Honeymoon Fund with options to purchase special dates, outings, and fun memories. We promise to snap a pic to send to you along with our biggest thank yous! You can find details about this unique twist on the Registry tab.

We have both been vaccinated and boosted to help protect ourselves and those we love. We strongly encourage our guests to be vaccinated for the best protection against COVID-19 and any variants that may surface. Masks are not required, but they are certainly an option should you choose to wear one. If you are feeling sick or if you have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, we ask that you stay home as not to expose any of our guests.
