Question

What is the easiest way to get to and from your wedding events?

We want to thank all of you in advance for taking the time out and traveling to our wedding.

Question

Is there a block rate for the hotel rooms?

Answer

We have a limited amount of rooms blocked for the night of Friday, September 22 (codes and information can be found under 'Travel' tab at the top of website). Unfortunately, Jack and I didn't think to check to Notre Dame football schedule for our big event *eyeroll,* and blocks were more difficult to secure. We suggest securing hotels/ air bnb's sooner rather than later due to Notre Dame having a home game that weekend!

Question

Am I allowed to take pictures at your wedding?

Answer

F*** yeah! Take all the pictures you want and be sure to post them in our virtual photo/video album!!! However, we will be having an “unplugged” ceremony. Our photographer, Aliscia Kenke, is amazing at what she does and will take the most beautiful pictures of the ceremony! https://weduploader.com/upload/PBZB7bUJ65wHegr7 There will be our amazing photographer Aliscia Klenke bopping around, along with our videographer, so make sure to jump in when you can! There will also be a photo booth by FOTIO in the reception area! We do ask that during the ceremony, that guests put their phones away! We want our professional pictures to capture to moment without guests holding up their cell phones. At the start of the ceremony, our officiant, Samantha's Uncle Dan, will give guests a moment for guests to take a photo or two, and then put phones on silent and back in their pockets.

Answer

If there is anything else you need answered, you can contact Samantha or Jack up until the week of the wedding. After that, please contact any of the bridesmaids or groomsmen and they will help you any way they can!
