Where is the ceremony?

Our wedding will be held at Poachers Pantry, just a 30-minute drive from Canberra centre. To make things simple, both the ceremony and reception will take place at the same venue.

What time should I arrive for the ceremony?

We kindly ask that you arrive early for the ceremony. This will allow ample time to find your seat and get settled before the proceedings begin. Please reference the Home page for timing details.

What should I wear? What is the dress code?

The dress code for our wedding is cocktail/semi-formal. For gentlemen, we suggest a suit and tie, and for ladies long dresses or jumpsuits would be perfect. Please keep in mind that it will be Autumn in Canberra, the nights can get quite cool.

Are kids welcome?

While we adore all the children in our lives, our wedding celebration will be an adults-only event. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

How do I know if I can bring a plus-one?

All plus-ones are specified on your invitation. We've thoughtfully planned our guest list, so we kindly ask that you RSVP only for those listed on the invitation.

Will there be meal options for guests with dietary restrictions?

Yes, please inform us of any dietary restrictions or allergies with your RSVP, and we will gladly accommodate.

Will there be a group bus to get there and where should I stay?

We are currently working on this. We will hopefully have more details by early December.
