Questions & Answers 📢
How should I dress?
The wedding is a formal event; we suggest either wearing a suit (in any color), a cocktail dress, or a nice pantsuit. Please no white, ivory, cream, vanilla, eggshell, or champagne colors. The exception to this is for button up shirts with a jacket worn over the shirt.
is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
The ceremony and reception are both outdoors. However, the reception space is covered by an event tent on a concrete pad, and heaters are available to our party if needed.
UPDATE (Sept 23): Weather for October 4th is currently a high of 74°, low of 47°, with a little wind and lots of sun ☀️ it should be a beautiful day!
Can I bring a plus one?
We have put a lot of thought into our guest list and have invited only our closest friends and family to celebrate our wedding weekend. Only those listed on the formal, mailed invitations are invited to attend.
This is an adult-only event.
Will alcoholic beverages be available?
Due to our religious beliefs, we will not be serving alcohol at our wedding. However, you’re welcome to bring your own beer or wine to enjoy during the celebration! We’ll have a designated cooler with ice to keep your beverages chilled. In addition, we’ll be providing iced tea, lemonade, and a mocktail for everyone to enjoy. We ask that any brought beverages be poured into a glass or enjoyed from a can koozie or can cooler. Nobody likes warm beer, right?
Additionally, please note that our venue has a few important restrictions:
• Hard liquor is not permitted on the premises (we do not have a liquor license nor the insurance to cover this).
• 30 minutes before the reception ends (9:30 PM), all remaining alcohol must be removed, and no additional alcohol may be opened or served.
Finally, please enjoy responsibly and arrange for a designated driver in advance, as Uber and Lyft services are not available in this area. Thank you in advance for your understanding and for helping us honor these guidelines!

Directions and parking details can be found below. On the day of the event, we will have a side-by-side vehicle to shuttle guests up the hill to the main venue space.
