Arrival & Day Of

Bride & Groom suites

The short answer

Signature and Premier experiences include the suites from the minute your window opens. Arrive camera-ready and use them for final touches — they stay yours all window. The walk to the chapel is 60–80 feet, with a hidden side-door route.

Who has them, and when

Signature and Premier experiences include our Bride & Groom suites, and they're yours from the moment your window opens — walk in at minute one and settle in. They stay yours for the whole window: keep your bags, garment bags, and touch-up kit there through the ceremony and photos.

The Intimate experience doesn't include the suites — arrive ceremony-ready and walk straight into your moment.

How to use the suites

Plan to arrive with hair and makeup done. With the timing of the day, the suites are for changing once you arrive, final touch-ups, and getting-ready shots with your photographer.

They're yours the whole time, so you can leave your belongings in there during your ceremony.

There are no speakers in the suites. If you'd like music while you get ready, bring a small portable speaker of your own.

Please note, our suites aren't designed for large wedding parties — if you have many bridesmaids and groomsmen, you may want to plan to have them get ready offsite and arrive ready.

Suite assignments

Since we may be doing multiple weddings per day, we built the venue with two sets of Bride & Groom suites we call North and South. We'll notify you beforehand which set you're assigned to so you know where to go when you arrive. They have signs on the doors.

Park in the side lot right next to the suites, not the main guest lot. Family arriving with you to help unload can park there too. The property map shows it.

Your walk to the chapel

It's a short walk: about 60 feet from the North suite, about 80 feet from the South suite. There are two ways for the bride to enter the chapel:

  1. Through the side entrance. Wait just inside the chapel's side door, then come around the corner into the aisle when cued. This is the hidden route.
  2. Through the front double doors. A grand entrance, but it takes two people holding the doors open.

The South suite door swings out toward the chapel, so the bride can slip out without being seen. If you're running a rehearsal, walk this path once so the lineup knows where to wait.

Common questions

Are there speakers in the Bride & Groom suites?

No — the suites don't have speakers. Bring a small portable speaker if you'd like music while you get ready. The chapel's sound system and the patio speakers are separate; see music at the chapel.
