Are the wedding ceremony and reception located in the same place ?
Yes! Both the ceremony and the reception will be on site at the Pavilion at Orchard Ridge in Rockton. There will be a cocktail hour after the ceremony while the wedding party takes formal photos ! Cheers !
What airport can I fly into ?
There are two options! Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) or Rockford International Airport (RFD). RFD is a 30 minute drive from the wedding venue, while ORD is a 90 minute drive from the venue. RFD will likely be more expensive due to being a smaller airport.
What type of transportation is provided between hotels and wedding venue?
Unfortunately, we were unable to provide shuttle transportation from each reserved hotel to/from the venue. There is ample parking on site at the Pavilion at Orchard Ridge. We encourage ride share opportunities such as Lyft, Uber, and traditional taxi cabs as well as carpooling with friends/family/acquaintances.
Please be sure to travel safely!
What if it rains ?
If Mother Nature decides to weep (i.e rain), the ceremony will take place indoors in the reception hall that is on site. Fingers crossed the weather cooperates!
Are you excited?
We most definitely are excited and we hope you are too! We look forward to having you be a part of our very special day :)
What do I wear?
Semi formal attire! Please wear what you would wear to church for special occasions (such as Christmas or Easter).
