Unfortunately, we opted for the old school mailed RSVP. Included in your invitation was an RSVP card and a preaddressed and postage paid envelope for you to send back. Please fill it out, stick it in the mail, and you are good to go!

Formal attire for men includes a suit and tie. If you are not a suit and tie kind of guy, please at least wear dress pants, a button up shirt, and a tie. Formal attire for women most commonly includes a floor-length dress, sophisticated cocktail dress, or classy pantsuit.

The only color to avoid is white. Our wedding colors are pinks into beiges and browns. I know those colors are flattering on a lot of people, so you are more than welcome to join the color scheme of the evening.

The Coal Show Parade is going to be going on after the ceremony, so there might be some more traffic than normal in Carmichaels. The ceremony starts at 1:30pm, so we would suggest you arrive no later than 1:20pm.

Absolutely! The parking lot belongs to the church, so you are free to park wherever you'd like.

We are having a traditional Catholic wedding ceremony. This involves a complete mass with communion.

Attend the ceremony! When we stand/sit/kneel, you may do whatever you feel most comfortable doing. When communion is being given, you are more than welcome to come up with your hands crossed over your chest to receive a blessing from the priest. Do not let the religion of the ceremony stop you from coming.

We expect the ceremony to conclude around 2:30. If you have been asked to stay for pictures at the church, please stay. If not, please proceed to your vehicle and make your way to Oglebay! Remember, the Coal Show parade is this day and roads will begin closing at 3:30. Cocktail hour starts at 5:00pm, and the trip from the church to Oglebay takes approximately an hour and a half.

Cocktail hour begins at 5:00 on the lawn outside of Glessner Auditorium. If you arrive early, feel free to check in to the hotel if you are staying and freshen up! If you are not staying, check out the lodge! Oglebay recently renovated and they have some cute coffee shops, gift shops, and bars/restaurants.

Yes! We will have butlered hors-d'oeuvres during the cocktail hour as well as the bar open.

Absolutely! All guests will enjoy a mixed field greens salad with either ranch or Italian dressing to start and garlic smashed potatoes and a seasonal vegetable with their entree. Entree choices are either a Free Range Chicken Breast with Herb butter or Grilled Sirloin of Beef with House Butter. The Vegetarian Dish will be Penne Primavera.

If you have a certain dietary restriction, please reach out to Floretta by text at 724-833-2474. She will handle everything to ensure you get whatever it is that you need.

Introductions of the Bridal Party and Bride and Groom will take place around 6:10. You can expect dinner to be served by 6:30.

YES! The bar will close during dinner though with wine service being available. We plan to have a party! PLEASE please please be sure to make arrangements to get home. Better yet, book yourself one of the rooms at Oglebay from the room block so you can enjoy the evening without worry.

The reception in Glessner Auditorium officially ends at 11:00. The bar will be closing a bit earlier to allow those driving home to safely do so. Wilson Lodge has a few bars that might be open to keep the party going, or a party can continue in someone's room. As mentioned previously, we want to have a party, but we also want everyone to be safe.

As long as you stay in the pew and out of the photographers' ways, you can take as many pictures as you'd like.

I would love for you to show off the work that we have put in to planning this wedding and the enjoyable time that you are having at our celebration! Please feel free to post as much as you'd like on social media.

Yes! It is #topavandtohold
