We recommend dressing according to your definition of Semi-Formal/Dressy Casual to the Wedding Ceremony and Reception. Our ceremony will be held inside an air-conditioned chapel. Our reception will be held in an open-air pavilion on the shore of Lake Hartwell. We would love to see everyone dressed up with us, but your comfort is just as important! If you plan to attend our after-party downtown Clemson, feel free to change after the reception into something more comfortable.
Yes to both! Parking is free of cost to our guests. The best parking lot for the ceremony will be at the Brooks Center: 141 Jersey Ln, Clemson, SC 29634 The parking lot for the reception is at the James F. Martin Inn: 230 Madren Center Dr, Clemson, SC 29631
If you are not staying with us at the James F. Martin Inn, we do have some other great hotels nearby that we recommend: 1. Lakeside Lodge https://www.lakesidelodgeclemson.com/ 2. The Abernathy https://www.theabernathy.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=business_listing 3. The Inn at Patrick Square https://www.innatpatricksquare.com/
We are leaving it up to you for when your night ends with us! Our reception will end around 8:30 after our send off. We hope this gives everyone the option to drive back home Saturday evening if you do not wish to stay at the hotel overnight! Otherwise, we will be heading downtown Clemson after the reception to enjoy the rest of the evening. Tiger Transit buses will be coming to our hotel around 9pm to take us downtown Clemson where we have the rooftop reserved of one of our favorite bars!
Absolutely not! We wanted to make sure everyone had options when it came to our wedding weekend. If it works for you, we would love to spend a few days with you. We have some outings planned that you are more than welcome to attend if you are in town. If you are planning to attend our wedding only on Saturday, we will be just as thrilled to see you and enjoy that time with you!
