Transportation will begin at 3:00 p.m. and run until all guests arrive. Please plan to be seated by 3:50 p.m. Return transportation will begin at 8:00 p.m. and run in continuous loops past 10:00 p.m. until all quests are transported back to The Spa at Old Edwards Inn and 200 Main.

We will provide childcare services from 30 minutes before the wedding ceremony at 3:30 until the end of the Wedding Reception at 10:00. The venue is a Farmhouse located at the wedding venue. It is a 4-bedroom house which is only a 2-minute walk from the wedding ceremony venue and the wedding reception venue. All children's food will be served at the farmhouse, so we ask that kids under 10 years old be dropped off as the end of cocktail hour approaches, before the Reception starts. The farmhouse will have movies, games, and puzzles to entertain the children. You'll be able to easily check on them throughout the evening. If you are bringing your own childcare, they can also use the farmhouse when watching your children.
