Will there be parking?

Yes! Olbrich has a generous sized parking lot. However, Olbrich will also be open to the public during the ceremony and reception, so we do recommend getting there early enough to secure your spot! Olbrich does have an alternative parking options map, in case parking does run out: https://www.olbrich.org/assets/files/Alternative-Parking-Options-Map.pdf

Will there be time between the ceremony and cocktail hour/reception?

There will be time between the these events, since we will still be taking an unfathomable amount of pictures. We encourage you to spend this time exploring Olbrich Gardens. Here is information to help you plan your time at Olbrich: https://www.olbrich.org/visit

Can I bring my children with me?

This is a child-free wedding. Not because we don't love the kiddos in our life, but rather because there were only so many spaces for invitees. So please leave the kids at home. (And before anyone makes the dad joke - no, our parents don't have to leave us at home in order to attend our wedding. We all know that we mean it's an 18 years and older wedding. It just sounds weird to call it an 18+ event)

What's the bathroom situation?

There are both gendered and non-gendered bathrooms at Olbrich. The gendered bathrooms are near the doors to the outside garden and where the ceremony will be. The non-gendered bathrooms are down the hall after the front desk and near the reception area. Please use whatever bathroom feels right for you.

Is this an LGBTQ+ wedding?

Yes. This is an open and proud LGBTQ+ wedding. We will not tolerate any harassment, discrimination, othering, or any other act of harm towards us, our guests, or our vendors. We understand that not everybody might be comfortable attending an LGBTQ+ wedding. If that is the case for you, it is ok to not attend our wedding.
