Something comfortable, but still a bit fancy--we don't want to be the only ones overdressed! "Evening Elegance" is our way of saying semi-formal! (Shirt, Tie, Dress Pants, pants/blouse, short-skirt dresses, maxi dress, etc)
When do I need to RSVP by?
June 28th, please! Either by mail or on the website--no need to do both!
Can I stay at a different hotel not listed?
Absolutely! Just know that the University of Mary is about 10 minutes away from downtown Bismarck, so you might have a bit of a drive to and from the venue if you look elsewhere.
What is parking like at UMary?
LOTS available. The Chapel parking lot is different than the reception site parking lot. You have the following options: park near the chapel and walk to the reception and back, park in the reception parking lot and walk to the chapel, or park at the chapel and then drive to the reception lot. Whatever works best for you!
Can I take pictures during the ceremony?
The Annunciation Chapel is actually a phone-free space. We ask that you leave your devices in your vehicles or turn them off out of respect for the space and the bride and groom. Our awesome photographer, @nikaylaandco, will be sure to capture the magic!
