Where is the ceremony and reception? What time should I arrive?
The ceremony and reception will take place at The Vale, 200 East Phillips Street, Conroe, Texas 77301, United States. The ceremony will start promptly at 4:00pm. We recommend guests arrive between 3:30-3:45 so there is time to mingle and find a seat.
If you happen to be late, someone will be there to let you know if they are still allowing guests in or if you will need to wait until the ceremony is over. If that happens, you will still be able to attend the reception, so hang tight, and we will see you at the reception!

We would love to share our special day with as many people as possible, but due to venue restrictions, we are unable to accommodate all plus ones. Please check your invitation for attendee information. If we have allowed you a plus one, we have listed her/his name or "Plus One" on your RSVP profile. If you feel we left out someone important, let us know, but understand that our limitations may mean our hands are tied.
While we adore your little ones, please note our wedding ceremony and reception will be an adult-only affair. We've got a night of great food, drinks, and dancing planned, and we want you to join us in unwinding and having a blast without any interruptions. So, let's all kick back, enjoy each other's company, and make some unforgettable memories together.
We can’t wait to dance the night away with our favorite people. The dress code is Formal with Black-Tie Optional. This means that guests have the option of wearing their most formal attire, a floor-length evening gown or tuxedo, but may also choose to wear a classic suit including a tie or a cocktail dress/dressy separates instead. The ceremony and reception will occur indoors, while the cocktail hour will be held outdoors. It is expected to be warm. We suggest checking the weather before packing and dressing for the day.
We also kindly ask that you avoid colors traditionally reserved for the bride - whites, ivories, and creams. No jeans please!
Transportation details will vary depending on the location and the preferences of our guests. We're currently exploring options for shuttle services for your convenience. More information about transportation arrangements will be shared closer to the wedding date, so please stay tuned for updates on our website.
Guests will have access to free parking in a lot across the street from our venue. Parking assistants will be available to help guests safely cross the street and into the venue.
We invite you to be truly present with us during our nuptials with an unplugged ceremony. We ask that phones and cameras remain out of sight until the ceremony concludes!
We have experienced photographers and videographers capturing our day and will happily share our professional images with you after the wedding. You are more than welcome to take photos and videos throughout the course of the reception. This is such a special day for us, and we want you able to take it all in, celebrate, and be in the moment with us!
