We plan to begin the ceremony promptly at 1 pm. Please plan to arrive at the church at least 20 minutes ahead of time to ensure you get to your seat and settled in! There will be a Priest Ordination in the church prior to our mass, so please ensure you arrive to the Cathedral with plenty of time to find parking, as there may still be people parked from the Ordination. Because of potential limits on parking options, we also recommend carpooling or using services such as Uber or Lyft. There will be no assigned seating outside of the wedding party and family areas.
When do I need to RSVP by?
RSVPs will be open until May 23rd of 2025, if we do not receive your RSVP by then, we will assume you are unable to make it to the big day and you will be missed! We have already opened our RSVPs, so if you already know you will (or will not) be able to join us, please feel free to complete the RSVP as soon as possible!
What is the dress code?
Our dress code falls under "semi formal". If guests would like to dress to our theme, we would love to see your best garden party attire! We only ask that you do not wear anything white or off-white, as well as no shorts or jeans.
Both the reception and the ceremony will be held indoors.
Are children invited?
Our event will be an adult only event! Certain teens who have been invited will be indicated on the invitations. If you have any questions about your family's invitations, please contact Emma!
Do I have a plus one?
We looked forward to celebrating with our closest family and friends! Unless your invite is labeled as "and Guest", please assume you do not have a plus-one.
What is the parking situation?
As mentioned above, parking by the Cathedral may be limited due to the Ordination mass prior to our wedding. We encourage guests to plan to arrive early, carpool, or find alternative parking in the surrounding neighborhoods if needed.
For the reception, all downtown parking is free on the weekends--unless otherwise noted as a paid-private lot!
Will dinner be served at the reception?
Since our wedding festivities are earlier in the day, we will not be serving dinner at the reception. However, there will be plenty of hors d'oeuvres, small plates, desserts, and drinks!
