We would love everyone to get dressed up in their best black formal attire for our big day! The dress code is black tie optional. Ladies can wear black floor-length or tea-length dresses. Gentlemen can wear a dark suit & tie. Jeans are not permitted. Keep in mind our church ceremony is followed by cocktail hour in the mansion's courtyard and reception under the mansion's glass pavilion.

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you have a plus one, it will be listed on your wedding invitation and appear when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!

We love your little ones as much as you do! However, we have decided to keep our reception adult only. We encourage you to take this as a date night!

To help us with our planning, we ask that you kindly RSVP by August 6, 2025. If we do not receive your RSVP by then, we cannot make any exceptions. We need to provide the venue with a total guest count in a timely manner. You can RSVP by mail or here on our website under the "RSVP" tab.

The ceremony will begin at 2:00 PM. Please arrive 10-30 minutes prior to the ceremony start time to assure you do not miss anything and allow us to begin on time!

The Cathedral parking lot is for unlimited use, except for clergy reserved parking. There are several handicap parking spaces available at the Cathedral on a first come first serve basis. There is a handicap accessible entrance off the driveway from the Fifth Avenue entrance (handicap accessible door and elevator) and there is a ramp near the parking lot door of the Cathedral. There is also street parking and private garages within a block or two for additional parking if the Cathedral lot is full.

There is plenty of parking at Hartwood Acres Mansion, including a lot to the left of the mansion as you approach it, and one directly in front of it across the green, all of which Google Maps will take you to when you plug in the venue address.
