Do I have to tip at the wedding?
All drinks will be covered at the cocktail hour & reception at the wedding.

As a guide, you typically tip $1 for a beer and $2-3 for a cocktail.
Outside of the wedding, 20% tip is standard for eating out, and 15% at the bar. Do not feel inclined to tip when ordering a take away coffee.

Yes there will be parking available at the wedding venue for those driving in.
What is the weather like in the area?
In late September, we typically see a Warm autumn weather. We would anticipate a 60*- 74* Fahrenheit (15*-23* Celsius) during the later afternoon with a slight breeze after sun down. It will probably be warm during the day but get chilly at night, keep your eye on the local weather leading closer to the event.
Am I allowed to bring my children or a +1?
Please note that your invite is addressed to who will be invited to the celebrations. While we love so many people and kids in our life, we have made very conscious and hard decisions on our invite list. Your RSVP will allow you to make the hold for the number of people we send the invite to (I.e If we send to Patrick Fullerton, he will be able to respond back (1) whereas if we invite Patrick Fullerton & Jakub Krajewski, he will be able to respond (2)).
