Question
Can I take pictures during the Ceremony?
Answer
We have decided to have an "unplugged" ceremony. This just means we respectfully ask that our guests refrain from using their cellphones until after the ceremony. We have hired a fantastic photographer who will be capturing the ceremony for us. Once the ceremony is over, please feel free to take as many photos as you would like!! We have a QR code posted around the venue to share all of your photos from the event. #SmittenByScully

Last but not least, for dessert we will have a delicious Wedding Cake from Orland Park Bakery. The fillings include Raspberry Preserves, Chocolate Fudge, and Chocolate Buttercream.
Question
Is smoking allowed?
Answer
Smoking is allowed outside of the Hotel and Venue but we are respectfully requesting that our families NOT bring any marijuana and any illegal substances to this event. We are very much aware the marijuana is legal in the state of Illinois but we have many family members who have an increased sensitivity to these things that may cause adverse effects; we want to be able to celebrate our big day with everyone!
