Question

Where is the location of the wedding?

Answer

Our wedding will be held at NIGHT HAWK VINEYARD & WINERY in PAOLA, KS. We couldn't be more excited about holding our special day at Kegan's Familie's property. They have truly built an incredible oasis in Eastern Kansas, surrounded by a centuries-old walnut grove, vineyard, hiking trail, and a beautiful pond to swim in.

What kind of attire should I wear?
