The ceremony begins at 530 pm. Arriving at 5 pm should be perfect!
Yes! PLEASE stay and ring in the New Year with us! We will have a countdown with a surprise at the turn of the New Year! Our venue has extended the hours to allow guests to stay until 1 am! Let's ring in 2023 together!
If you are invited, we have allotted a +1. If your children are listed in the RSVP, then we have planned for them. Due to space limitations, only children of the wedding party are able to be included. Please let us know how many will be attending when you RSVP, so we can plan accordingly. If you don't really like your +1, come alone and party with us! :)
Yes, but we won't be offended if you want a date night and hire a babysitter! That being said, we are only able to accommodate the children of those in our wedding party, unless we have discussed otherwise. If your child is able to attend, we have listed their names in the RSVP section. We have over 30 children in the wedding party alone! Thank you for understanding.
Our #1 Choice is Fairfield Inn in St. Joseph, MO. When you call, request the 10% Wedding Discount! Stoney Creek is a close second!
Unfortunately, our menu has already been selected. In fact, our pescatarian daughter is thrilled we are having BBQ. Ha! We will have a lot of options, and are hoping there is something for everyone. We won't be offended if you have to bring something to accommodate your dietary needs.
Yes. There is a large parking lot. The wedding and reception are at the same location, so you can park and enjoy the evening! If you need to park overnight to avoid drinking and driving, PLEASE do so!
It's NYE! Dress to impress! We won't kick you out though! :)
We have a Zola registry, which includes an Amazon registry. We will be adding some excursions for our honeymoon at a later time. Our greatest gift would be to have you ring in the New Year with us as Mr. and Mrs!
YES! It's NYE!!! We will have an open bar consisting of 3 signature drinks, beer, and wine! Although it is an open bar, we ask that you generously show your appreciation for their services through tipping. We also ask that you plan ahead and have plans for your ride home; however, we do have a shuttle available between 11-1. We are vehemently opposed to drinking and driving and want all of our guests to have a fun and SAFE NYE!
We will have a 15 passenger van traveling between the venue and local hotels starting at 11 pm. This will run until 1 am. Uber is another option, although cannot be guaranteed. We would love you to stay for the NYE countdown, but understand some may need to leave early.
After much deliberation, we have decided to have an Unplugged Ceremony. Have you ever priced a wedding photographer? Whew! They’re expensive! However, they are worth it! When we look back at our photos, we want to see your faces in our pics, and not a crowd of cell phones. Also, we invite you to be mindful and fully in this moment with us. We want you to view our ceremony through your lens, not the camera lens. After the ceremony, PLEASE take as many photos and videos as your heart desires. Please respect our wishes and turn your phone off while we say “I Do!” Thank you!

Of course! It’s the middle of winter!
