Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
While we love your little ones, our wedding is an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening!
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
Due to our venue's space limitations, we simply can not allow for all of our lovely guests to bring a guest of their own. We are asking our guests to please not bring a plus one, unless he/she is specifically named on the invitation. Thank you so much for understanding!
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
We ask that our guests dress in cocktail attire. Bridesmaids will be wearing lilac purple, and it is kindly requested that other guests refrain from wearing that color.
Question
When does the wedding ceremony begin?
Answer
The ceremony will begin at 1:00pm. We kindly ask that all guests are seated in the church by 12:45pm.
Question
Can I take pictures/videos during the ceremony?
Answer
The greatest gift you can give us today is to be truly present, so please turn off all phones and cameras and enjoy this special moment with us!
Question
How long is the wedding ceremony?
Answer
The wedding is being celebrated as a Catholic sacrament in the form of a mass. Duration will be between 1 hour and 1.5 hours. We kindly ask that any guests who are not Catholic refrain from receiving Holy Communion. Those who wish to receive a blessing may do so.
Question
Is the wedding reception indoors?
Answer
No. Cocktail Hour, Dessert, and Drinks will be served indoors. Dinner and dancing will be outside under a tent. Michigan weather in May is similar to Pittsburgh weather in May :) Please dress accordingly!
Question
Parking for ceremony & reception?
Answer
Yes, both St. Joseph's Church and The McIntyre have ample parking available.
Question
Transportation to & from the hotel?
Answer
Unfortunately, there will not be a shuttle to either hotel. Uber and Lyft are also great options, as the hotel is within a 10 minute drive from the venue.
