Q; What are some good restaurants near the Doubletree Hotel?

A: There are quite a few options within walking distance, easy to find e.g. on google maps. If you want to drive a bit farther, here are a couple more ideas in Bay City: for dinner a good place is Latitude 43, and for lunch (good large sandwiches with a view) there is Wannigan’s Eatery and Pub.

Q: What accessibility provisions are there at the church?

A: The church has handicapped parking spots near the front door. The door is equipped with a push button release. This is the closest entrance to the sanctuary, where the wedding will be. Wheelchairs and walkers are available just inside the front entrance, on the right side. There is a family/handicapped restroom just to the right of the sanctuary. There is also quite a bit of seating just outside the sanctuary, e.g. in case people want to sit and visit with each other after the wedding ceremony.

Q: How will you handle special dietary needs at the reception?

A: When you RSVP, there is a place to indicate dietary restrictions. This will allow us to alert you in advance to dishes you should avoid on the buffet or to order a special meal for you as needed.
