Black tie optional. No jeans, sneakers, or flip flops, please.
Will we be providing transportation?
No, and we are hoping that won't be necessary. The church is 1 short block from our reception venue, and we reserved courtesy blocks at the 2 hotels between the venues for the convenience of our guests (see the "Hotel Blocks" tab.) Saturday's events are walking-distance from both. There are several other hotels in walking distance of our venues downtown. Please refer to the "Map" page of our site for a visual.
Will there be an open bar?
Of course! We will have an open bar from 4:45-10:00 pm.
What about food?
We'll be serving light passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour, and a seated dinner later in the evening. Kids plates and vegan/vegetarian options will be available.
Will Johanna be taking John's last name?
YES, and she can't wait to officially be a Chesnut.
Will our precious dachshunds, Jimbo and Honey, be making an appearance at the wedding?
No, they didn't even congratulate us on our engagement so we won't be inviting them. Plus Jimbo is a terrible dancer.
