Wording on invite inserts about parking and attire (for outdoor ceremony)

MrsBest2B, on March 26, 2016 at 3:58 PM Posted in Planning 0 9

There is no overnight parking permitted at my venue. How do I nicely say this? Right now I have:

"Overnight parking is not permitted at the venue. Please consider

the following options if you choose to over celebrate the day."

followed by a list of cab services, but I think "if you choose to over celebrate the day" sounds weird

We'll have an outdoor ceremony on the grass. Right now I have:

"Clear skies permitting, our ceremony will be held

outdoors and on the grass. Please dress accordingly."

Is that fine?

    The parking thing does sound weird but I'm not sure what sounds better. I think the second park sounds fine. Although as a guest I would want a follow-up on how fancy to dress.

    I would leave out the please dress accordingly. By stating it is outside people who get the hint that they need to dress accordingly.

    I was planning on leaving a dress code out. It's not casual and it's no black tie, so I assume people know not to show up looking drab and even if they do, I don't care the much lol

    I wouldnt say that about "overcelebrating" I would say:

    "(Name of venue) cannot accommodate overnight parking. Please take this into consideration when planning your travel to and from the wedding celebration"

    I think Kelsey C. said it best about the cabs. As for the grass, I have been thinking about this one too. I'm just considering "our ceremony will be held outdoors on the lawn of the Inn at Huntingfield Creek". To me the word "outdoors" says dress accordingly in its self and "lawn" says "don't wear heels."
