FAQs

Question

What precautions are being taken for COVID-19?

Answer

We are requiring that all guests in attendance at the ceremony and reception be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. We request that all guests bring a properly fitting mask to wear in the buffet line (servers will also be masked). We will have extra masks available, as well as hand sanitizer. The ceremony and cocktail hour will be held outside, and the reception is in a tent. Depending on the temperature, we will open some or all of the tent walls to allow for additional airflow.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

No. Due to the venue restrictions, children are not invited to the ceremony or the reception. The flower girl and ring bearer are the only kiddos that will be present on the big day. Please ask us about attendance of teens over the age of 13.

Question

What footwear would you suggest?

Answer

Dancing shoes! No barefoot dancing is allowed, so please make sure that your shoes are comfortable for dancing. The ceremony seating is on grass with a cement walkway. The beautiful gardens are not all paved, so please keep that in mind when choosing footwear as well.

Question

What temperature should I dress for?

Answer

Please bring a coat for the reception. The ceremony will be held outdoors. The reception will be held in an open-air tent and things may get breezy and chilly in the evening. Please bring a coat to stay warm (or just dance very vigorously).

Question

Is outside alcohol allowed?

Answer

No - This venue is a winery and as such outside alcohol cannot legally be consumed on the premises. There will be ample beer and wine, so no outside alcohol should be necessary. The couple has contractually agreed to pay a fine for each infraction, so please - enjoy the alcohol that is provided!

Question

Can I swim in the fountain?

Answer

No. Well, maybe you can, but you should not.
