Cocktail wedding attire is a slightly more elevated dress code than semi-formal attire but is less formal than formal wedding attire. Men typically wear a suit & tie while women wear a cocktail dress. Full length gowns are not necessary, but are welcomed if preferred. Most common dresses worn include tea-length, knee-length or midi dresses. For more information, visit the following link: https://www.theknot.com/content/cocktail-wedding-attire
When should I arrive?
Please plan to arrive between 4:30-4:45pm to ensure the ceremony can begin on time.
Can I bring a guest/+1?
As much as we would love for everyone to be able to bring a guest, unless your invitation specifically states "and Guest", you do not have a plus one. Please respect our decisions as space is limited. We thank you for your understanding!
Where can I stay overnight and is there a room block?
There is a room block at the Cork Factory Hotel for the night of the wedding. We highly recommend booking early as rooms will sell quickly. Please reference the "Travel" tab for more information on booking. Additional hotels nearby are listed for your convenience, but will not have a room block.
Is there parking?
Yes! The Cork Factory Hotel has a parking lot free of charge.
Will there be an open bar?
Yes, of course! Please do NOT bring any outside alcohol into the ceremony or reception as this is against the venue's policy and will result in fines. There will be plenty provided, free of charge :)
Can I bring my children?
While we love your kiddos, we have decided to keep our wedding ceremony and reception an adult-only event, with the exception of a few close family members. Unless your invitation specifically states "and Family", the invite does not extend to children. We thank you for your understanding as space is limited!
Will the wedding be outside?
Both the ceremony & reception will be indoors to escape the heat!
Am I allowed to take photos at your wedding?
We kindly ask that you do not take photos once the ceremony begins, as this results in many phones being held up in the professional wedding photos. Feel free to take as many pictures as you'd like during cocktail hour and for the remainder of the reception!
Will there be an after-party?
Yes - we plan to transition to Quips Pub after the reception (walking distance directly across the street from Cork Factory Hotel)
