Please RSVP no later (either by mail or here on the website) than September 20, 2024. If we do not receive a response by this date, it will be marked a "no". We will miss you celebrating with us; however, we must promptly provide the total guest count to the caterer, and we cannot accept late RSVPs past this point. We hope you understand.

We sure hope you’ll be able to join us for our special day. With your invitation, there will be an RSVP card that you can fill out and return, or feel free to click on the RSVP tab at the top and let us know your plans right here on our website today!

Our ceremony will start at 4pm -- we ask that you be in your seats no later than 3:45 pm. We will have a harpist playing lovely music for you to enjoy while you wait for the big day to begin!

Cocktail attire. We suggest that men wear a suit or dress shirt with tie and women wear a midi- or knee-length dress or dressy separates.

We are having an "unplugged" wedding. Which means; we have hired a bomb photographer named Meghan and during the ceremony only, we ask that you kindly put away your phones and tablets and enjoy the moment with us! She will get all the shots which we will share with you! During the reception, you can take as many photos as you like! Thank you for adhering to this request, it is truly very important to us!

Weather permitting; we will hold the ceremony outside on the large, uncovered patio. The cocktail hour will be on the covered front porch and then we will move inside the ballroom for the reception. If weather is bad, we will pivot and the ceremony + reception will both be inside the ballroom!

Guests can enjoy cocktail hour on the covered front porch where snacks and drinks will be flowing. The formal reception will start around 5:30 pm, with dancing, good food and fun!

Yes, while supplies last ;) We are supplying beer, rose wine and bourbon for Old Fashioned signature cocktails. There will also be lemonade, water and tea.
