The wedding will be located at Revival Wedding Barn in Dowagiac, Michigan. It is a modern, rustic, but chic event barn in southwest Michigan. The address is: 29237 M-152, Dowagiac, MI 49047.
We plan to have an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour, with an indoor reception. The reception barn has air conditioning, but barn doors may be left open if the weather is nice. In the event of poor weather, we will do the ceremony in the indoor reception barn.
The ceremony starts at 4:00, but you may want to plan to arrive 15-20 minutes before the ceremony begins to ensure you are settled before the proceedings.
Once you receive your formal invitation, go to the RSVP page on this website and let us know if you'll make it to our big day. Due to limited guest count restraints, we can only accommodate guests listed on the invitation.
Yes, we have reserved blocks of rooms at 3 hotels in the Benton Harbor/St. Joseph area. They are about 25 minutes from the wedding venue. The specific details regarding the individual hotels and how to book are listed on the "Accommodations" portion of this website.
Yes there will be 2 shuttle busses to transport guests to and from the wedding venue to the hotel blocks. The busses combined can hold up to 112 passengers. The shuttles will be picking up guests before the wedding around 2:45-3. At the end of the night, there will be an early shuttle that leaves the venue at 9:00, and the final shuttle leaves at 10:30 when the reception ends. We don't encourage drinking and driving, so feel free to take advantage of this transportation!
While we don't have any specific dress code, semi-formal attire would be appropriate. That means we would love to see you get a little dressed up with us, while still being comfortable. The weather in June is usually mid 70's, but may drop down as the sun sets. Since the weather is always unpredictable, so if you get cold easily, you may want to bring a light sweater or jacket.
We kindly ask that our wedding be an adults-only affair, unless specified on your invitation. Due to limited guest count restraints, we unfortunately are not able to accommodate your little ones. We apologize for any inconvenience, but we hope that you can take this as an opportunity to enjoy a night out.
