While we wish we could invite all of the kids, only a limited number of guests under 21 years old are allowed at our reception venue due to PA Gaming Control Board restrictions. So unless you received an invitation that explicitly lists your kids names or “and Family” we ask that they remain at home.
Anyone under the age of 21 who was not listed ahead of time will not be allowed to enter the Casino. About a month before the wedding, the bride or groom will reach out to known underage guests and request an approximate time of arrival and name of a chaperone who is older than 21. Guests under 21 along with their chaperones should arrive at the Casino around 4:45 PM. Each underage guest must be accompanied by their chaperone and meet with a security representative outside the Casino Main Entrance (near Valet) or in the Hotel Lobby and be escorted to the Ballroom. If the underage guest is between the ages of 16 and 20, they will receive a wrist band. If they are under 16, they will just need to be accompanied throughout the night. All underage guests must leave immediately with their chaperone and Security at the conclusion of the Reception. Please note, once guests under 21 leave the facility, even if that’s before the conclusion of the Reception, they will not be able to re-enter.

Yes! Food allergies will definitely be accommodated. Please note in your RSVP if there is a specific allergy that needs to be avoided.
We love photos! We do ask that you refrain from taking photos during the ceremony, we’d like that time to be unplugged so our lovely photographers and videographers can do what they do best. For the rest of the wedding, we encourage guests to post pictures and tag us so we can see them, too!
