What is the dress code, or attire, for the wedding?

Dressy Casual, i.e., anything from business casual to cocktail attire. "Dressier than what you would wear to work, but not as formal as what you would wear to black-tie or formal events" (https://www.theknot.com/content/what-to-wear-dressy-casual).

Will the wedding be indoor or outdoor?

Both :-) The ceremony will take place on an outdoor (covered) patio immediately adjacent to the indoor space, where the reception and cocktail hour will occur. Weather-permitting, the "garage" doors between the indoor and outdoor spaces may be open.

What time does the ceremony actually begin?

The ceremony is scheduled to begin promptly at 5:00pm CST. Guests may seat themselves as early as 4:30. If you arrive very early, you may grab a drink at Lifted Spirits distillery next door or avail yourself of any of the many other food and drink venues within close walking distance of The Austin.

What is the planned schedule of events for the evening?

4:30pm Guest seating 4:55 Prelude (last call to be seated) 5:00 Ceremony 5:30 Cocktail hour + family photos 6:15 Reception 10:15 Last call 11:00 Event ending

Where's the after party?

The Crossroads District is a late night entertainment hub full of restaurants, bars/pubs, breweries, distilleries, music venues, street murals, and more. Midtown to the south and Downtown to the north also have an abundance of dining and entertainment options. While Rachel and Matt will most surely be partied out, please enjoy the city to your heart's content—and make advance arrangements (Uber, Lyft, or DD) for safe travel to your destination at the end of the night.
