All transportation to and from the church must be arranged. For guests that are staying in our hotel room block there will be shuttles provided from the hotel to the reception and back at the end of the night. There will only be 1 pick up and 1 drop off so please be prompt. If you are not staying and decide to drive to the reception there is plenty of parking available. If you drive to the reception and party a little too hard, all vehicles must be picked up from Skyview by 12 pm the next day.
Question
Is there a gap between the ceremony and reception?
Answer
Yes! Ryan and I will not be doing a first look, therefore we have created a gap in between the ceremony and reception to allow for pictures with our bridal party. The church ceremony will be from 2-3 pm and the reception begins at 6 pm. This will allow for guests who are staying at the designated hotel to drive there and check into their rooms. There will be a shuttle ready to depart at 5 pm to bring guests from the Hilton to Skyview. If you are not staying in the hotel please make transportation arrangements to join us at Skyview at 6 pm.
