If I choose to stay at the Casino, when can I check in to my hotel room?

Tioga Downs Casino Resort check-in time starts at 3pm. The circulation desk will allow you to leave your bags up front if you arrive before then. You will have time between the ceremony and cocktail hour to check in if you did not check in prior to the ceremony.

Our ceremony and reception will take place at separate locations. The ceremony will be held at the Tioga Golf Club. Cocktail hour and reception will be held at the Tioga Downs Resort Casino. See the "Home" page for more information.

What time should I get to the ceremony?

The ceremony is scheduled to begin at 4pm. We ask that you arrive before 3:45pm.

Is this an outdoor wedding?

Our ceremony will be held outside at Tioga Golf Club, weather permitting. If the weather does not hold up, there ceremony will be held in the golf course clubhouse.

Where should I park for the ceremony?

For parking, you have two options: 1) Park at Tioga Downs Casino Resort and take the Tioga Downs bus shuttle to the venue. Keep in mind that the shuttle has limited capacity and will need to make multiple trips. 2) Drive yourself to the ceremony at the Tioga Downs Golf Club. There is a good amount of space to park at the course, but if it's a busy golf day, parking may be limited. Carpooling is encouraged.

What are we doing after the ceremony?

After the ceremony, the happy couple, family, and wedding party will take pictures. While the couple and their families are occupied, guests are invited to return to the casino. Cocktail hour begins at 5:30pm. This is also a great time to check in to your hotel room if you have not done so already. Reception will begin at 6:30pm. Dinner will be served at 7pm.

What are we doing after the reception?

The reception is scheduled to end at 10pm. However, the party will continue! The happy couple plans to get their comfy clothes on and head down to the casino around 10:30/11pm. Stay up and hang out with us if you want!

Can I bring alcohol to the wedding?

No need to--our wedding will have an open bar. Also, Tioga Downs Casino Resort has made it VERY clear to us that outside alcohol IS NOT permitted on the casino floor. Failure to comply with this policy will result in legal involvement and an escort off of the premises. You are, however, more than welcome to bring your own to keep in your room.

Can I bring a plus one?

While we would love to have a "more-the-merrier" approach, our budget does limit our guest list. Please only bring a guest if your digital RSVP allows you to add one. If you are unsure, feel free to reach out to the bride or groom.

Can I bring my little ones?

We've decided to make our wedding an adult-only affair, with the exception of a few younger family members. We kindly request that our wedding be an opportunity for adults to enjoy themselves without little ones in tow.

If I have dietary restrictions, how should I let you know?

Our electronic RSVP will include a section to tell us about your dietary restrictions, so please fill that out when you RSVP!

Will there be an open bar?

Are you kidding? Of course!!! Be sure to tip your bartenders so they pour heavy ;)

Can I take pictures during the ceremony?

The bride and groom are paying a very talented photographer to capture our special day. Therefore, there is no need for you to take photos during the ceremony. You are more than welcome to take photos and videos during cocktail hour and the reception.

Can I bring a gift to the wedding?

Your presence is the only gift we request, but if you do feel inclined to get us something, see our "registry" tab on this website for details.

What if I have a question on the day of the wedding?

Please reach out to the mother of the bride (Carole Berg) at 607-259-2257 for emergent questions.

What if something comes up and I can no longer attend the wedding?

Please reach out to the bride or groom to let us know that you can't make it.

What if I have a question that is not listed here?

Please feel free to reach out to the bride or groom if you have any questions before the wedding.
