Our wedding ceremony will start promptly at 1:00 PM, so we kindly ask that guests arrive at the church 30 minutes early to ensure everyone is seated on time. Cocktail hour will begin at 5:30 PM at the Elkins Estate. We recognize there will be a bit of a gap between the ceremony and the start of cocktail hour. This is a great opportunity to get the celebrations started early and grab a drink at our favorite restaurant, Parc, which is just a block away from the church! Otherwise, if you are staying onsite at the Elkins Estate, we encourage you to head over and check-in to your room.

St. Patrick's Church is located right in the heart of Center City Philadelphia so parking can sometimes be a challenge. However, there are two parking garages a block away from the church: The Ritenhouse Garage: 214 S 20th St, Philadelphia, PA 19103 Parkway - 20th & Walnut: 1912 Walnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19103 Street parking is available, but often times limited. There is complimentary valet parking onsite at the Elkins Estate.

We are so excited to celebrate this day with our nearest and dearest, and are hoping to keep the guest list limited to those on the invitation/RSVP. If you have any questions, we will be more than happy to answer. Thank you for your understanding!

We decided to keep our wedding and reception an adults-only event (the only exception are the ones in our bridal party/immediate family). Invitations will be specific and will include the names of the children who are invited. We hope you understand and enjoy a night off!

For the reception, we'd love our family & friends to get fancy with us for our special day. Our dress code is Black Tie preferred. Ladies can wear floor-length to mid-length dresses/gowns. Gentleman can wear a dark colored suit and tie or tuxedo. Most importantly, please make sure you bring your dancing shoes! We can't wait to see your fabulous outfits.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to accommodate you if you RSVP late. We will need to provide our vendors and the venue exact numbers by a certain date. Please be sure to RSVP as soon as possible.
