Black-tie preferred. We ask that men wear a tuxedo or a dark suit and tie and women wear an evening gown or midi/knee-length cocktail dress.

Ceremony is 5:00 pm. We ask that all guests arrive at least 15 minutes prior to this time.

What accommodations will be provided?

We have booked four separate hotel blocks in Birmingham, Michigan at the following hotels: 1) Townsend Hotel - Wedding Party Hotel 2) Daxton Hotel 3) The Kingsley - A DoubleTree Hotel 4) Holiday Inn Express. Please visit the Hotels tab to book. We recommend booking as soon as possible before the hotel blocks run out.

How far is Birmingham, Michigan from the wedding venue (The War Memorial)?

Expected travel time from Birmingham to The War Memorial is around 40 minutes.

Is there parking at The War Memorial?

Yes, there is plenty of parking onsite. Though, we encourage guests to enjoy our bar and use a ride share service, or if staying at one of the hotel blocks, using the provided shuttle.

Will there be transportation to the venue?

Yes, there will be a complimentary shuttle service to and from the venue on Sunday leaving from both the Townsend Hotel and The Kingsley Hotel and then back after the reception. If you are staying at any of the four hotels, plan to meet at one of the two locations for a 3:45pm departure to the venue. Shuttles will begin taking guests back after the reception promptly at 10pm with the last shuttle leaving at midnight.

Will the ceremony and reception be indoors or outdoors?

The reception will be held indoors, while the ceremony and cocktail hour will be held outdoors, weather dependent. We are hopeful for beautiful weather, but please be aware that if conditions do not permit an outdoor ceremony or cocktail hour, we will move them inside to ensure everyone's comfort.
