Hotel
Lititz Springs Inn
These rooms are perfect for those planning on taking advantage of the attached English Pub next door! The second floor rooms are more vintage Victorian, while the third floor has a modern music industry theme and prices range from $175-240. The bride and groom are staying on the third floor so the whole after-party will have access to the balcony patio and kitchen suite, where brunch will be served in the morning to both second and third floor guests. Please note that if you try to book thru the website you will see no availability because we reserved all the rooms for the wedding! You will have to call 717-626-2115 and say it’s for the Ruhf/Showalter wedding to make reservations.

FAQs
Question
It's on May the Fourth...Is this a Star Wars Themed Wedding??
Answer
Not necessarily, though the keen-eyed observer will notice plenty of nods to our favorite nerd-doms throughout the wedding and reception, Star Wars included! But even though it’s not a costume party, if you'd like to don your Jedi gear or Darth Vader helmet (or Hogwarts uniform?) go for it!
Question
Where can we park for the ceremony or reception?
Answer
Ceremony: Parking is available in any of the church’s lots, with the ceremony being made accessible to any member of the congregation who is so inclined to join us on our special day! Reception: The Lititz Springs Inn does not have its own parking lot; however parking is available within a few blocks of the inn: Juniper Lane and North Lane run parallel with Main Street in Lititz. Guests can park behind the Lititz Springs Inn on Juniper Lane at the elementary school. On North Lane, there are 2 bank parking lots and LG Health parking lot with plenty of spots available. Guest can also park on Main street - which is metered. The meters stop at 6:00 PM.
Question
What if I have a food allergy/dietary restriction?
Answer
We gotchu! Use the RSVP cards to give us a heads up so we can pass those vital details along to our reception coordinator Jeff Merk. You can also flag him or the head server down during cocktail hour and clarify any remaining concerns in person. Here are more details about each entree (the sauces should be gluten-free): - Flat Iron Steak: 6oz, red wine demi-glacé - Chicken Francaise: sautéed in white wine, butter, and lemon - Vegetarian: pasta with vegetables with chef’s choice sauce Sides: Scalloped potatoes and seasonal vegetables Soup: Tomato Bisque Salad: Caesar
Question
Are all the rooms at the inn booked already??
Answer
Most likely not! We reserved all the rooms for the wedding so the inn’s website will show zero availability. You will have to call 717-626-2115 and say it’s for the Ruhf/Showalter wedding to make reservations.
