Q + A

When do I need to RSVP by?

Please RSVP by June 30th. This ensures that we have enough time to get the final counts to the vendors!

How can I RSVP?

Click on the "RSVP" tab on the website homepage and follow the steps. You will have to provide an email address if you want confirmation that you have RSVP'ed successfully.

Can I bring a plus one?

We ask that you only bring a plus-one if you are given the option on your invite. We want to ensure that we have the right amount of food and seating for our guests and will not be able to accommodate those who are unaccounted for! Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you for understanding!

What time should I arrive?

The ceremony will start promptly at 1:00 pm. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early to ensure you have time to park and find a seat! As for the reception, cocktail hour will start at 4:30 pm, and dinner will begin at 6:00 pm. Please arrive anytime between then to help us celebrate!

What can I expect from the ceremony?

The ceremony will take place indoors at St. Thomas the Apostle church. The ceremony should last roughly one hour. During a portion of the ceremony, all practicing Catholics who have received their first communion and are in good graces are invited up to the front to receive the Euchrist. For those who have not received the sacrament in the catholic church, you are still welcome to come to the front to receive a blessing. To do this, either place your hand over your heart or make an X to signal Fr. Dave to provide a blessing.

What should I wear?

We'd love to see our family and friends dress up with us! We are requesting cocktail attire for the wedding. Please, no jeans or shorts.

Can I bring my children?

Although we love your little ones, we ask that only the guests whose children are in the wedding party attend. Those who have children that are not invited, please enjoy this as a night away. We appreciate that you will make arrangements in advance to celebrate with us.

Will there be an open bar?

Our signature drink and tap beer are on the house! If you fancy a different drink selection, it will be a cash bar. Please remember to tip the bartenders!
