FAQ’S

What is the Dress Code?

We kindly request formal attire. This dress code is elegant and elevated, but not black-tie. Think long or midi dresses, dressy jumpsuits, and tailored suits with ties. Dress to impress and be ready to dance the night away!

Is the Ceremony and Reception at the Same Place?

Yes! Both the ceremony and reception will take place at Ashton Gardens. The chapel and ballroom are on the same property, so no additional travel is needed.

What Time Should I Arrive?

Please plan to arrive between 4:00 and 4:45 PM to allow time for parking and finding your seat before the ceremony begins.

Are There Hotels Nearby?

Yes! Please visit our Travel & Stay page for nearby hotel recommendations and booking information.

What if I Have Food Restrictions?

Please list any food restrictions when you RSVP, and we’ll make sure you’re taken care of.
