Questions

What time should I arrive?

1

Doors open thirty minutes before the ceremony at 4:30 PM. Arriving by 4:00 PM leaves time for the tram and to find your seat.


Is the ceremony indoors or outdoors?

2

The ceremony and reception are both held at The Sanctuary, with cocktails on the terrace weather permitting.


Are children welcome?

3

We love your little ones. Details on children will be confirmed with your invitation.


What should I wear?

4

Fall-inspired formal attire โ€” greens, browns, burnt orange and terracotta. The venue floors are smooth, so heels are fine.


Motorgate Garage on Main Street is the easiest option, a short walk from the venue.
