Good to Know

FAQ

Is the ceremony outdoors?

Yes! The ceremony is on the south lawn. In the event of rain, we have a beautiful covered pavilion as backup. We'll notify guests one week before if we need to use it.

Are children welcome?

We love your little ones! Children are welcome at the ceremony. The reception is adults-only (18+), so we recommend arranging childcare for the evening.

What should I wear?

Garden formal โ€” think summer dresses, linen suits, or cocktail attire. Since part of the evening is on grass, we recommend block heels or flats. June in Vermont can be cool in the evenings; a light layer is a good idea.
