The wedding party and family will be staying at the Halcyon Hotel
Are the event spaces heated?
Yes, the church and the venue at The Botanic Gardens will be heated. Be sure to bring layers anyway when going to and from each event space!
Do I need a seperate dress/suit for the ceremony and reception?
Not necessary! The ceremony and reception have the same dress code, simply put...wear the same outfit!
Is transportation provided?
Yes!
There will be transportation provided to and from the Halcyon Hotel for all events on the wedding day!
What happens between the ceremony ending (2:30PM) and reception beginning (5:00PM)
Guests will be brought from the Basilica back to the Halcyon/Moxy Hotels to relax and refresh. Transportation will be offered from the Halcyon to the Botanic Gardens, please see the timeline as we update with departure times.
I'm local, can I drive and use the wedding transportation?
Of course, but be mindful there is no free parking in Cherry Creek North.
There is plenty of metered parking and the Halcyon Hotel has a parking lot with the following fees
Parking fees are: $20 (0 – 4 hours), $28 (4 – 8 hours), $60 (8 – 24 hours).
I'm driving, where is parking for the church and the Botanic Gardens?
CATHEDRAL BASILICA PARKING
Parking is free & available every day in the Mary Garden located at Colfax and Pennsylvania.
If that lot is full, parking is available on the street or in the pay parking lots near the church.
BOTANIC GARDENS PARKING
The parking lot at The Botanic Gardens is a large free lot, that can be accessed from both York St. and Josepine St.
I have kiddos, what are my options?
Children will be welcome to the Ceremony at the Basilica; however, the reception is child-free.
SO! We will be offering a baby-sitting service through Tots On The Spot; a reputable, safe, certified child-care company. They will watch the kids in a reserved room at the Halcyon Hotel during reception hours so parents and carers can have a worry-free night with the newlyweds!
Please contact Melanie or Tom if you have little people who need looking after!
