We absolutely love your little ones! While the wedding events themselves will be adults-only, we completely understand that arranging childcare at home isn’t always easy. You’re more than welcome to bring your children along for the trip if needed, and we’d be happy to recommend trusted childcare options in Burlington during the wedding celebrations.

Formal attire is requested. Ladies are encouraged to wear floor-length, tea-length, or elegant cocktail dresses, and gentlemen are encouraged to wear suits or tuxedos. Both the ceremony and reception will be held indoors.

Formal invitations will be sent closer to our wedding date. Once you receive your invitation, we kindly ask that you RSVP by March 10, 2026. This allows us to finalize seating arrangements and accommodate any dietary restrictions or special requests. Thank you for helping us plan our special day!

Since our ceremony and reception will both take place at the Pearle Hotel & Spa, there will be no need for transportation between venues. Should you need transportation to or from the hotel, Uber and Lyft are readily available in the area.

We recommend arriving no earlier than 30 minutes before the ceremony time. As a note, the ceremony begins at 2:30pm.

Yes, the Pearle Hotel (where the ceremony and reception will be held) has valet parking as well as paid parking both municipal and and garages in the area.

Burlington itself sits right on Lake Ontario and offers beautiful waterfront paths, parks, and beaches—perfect for walking, biking, or relaxing by the water. Downtown Burlington has a charming mix of local restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques, and the Royal Botanical Gardens nearby are a must-see. If you enjoy the outdoors, Spencer Smith Park, Bronte Creek Provincial Park, Webster Falls (where we got engaged!) and the nearby Niagara Escarpment offer great hiking and scenic views. Just under an hour away, Niagara Falls is an easy day trip, whether it’s your first visit or a repeat. The surrounding Niagara region is also known for its wineries, especially in Niagara-on-the-Lake, where you can enjoy tastings, vineyard views, and excellent dining. Toronto is also close by and makes for a great day or overnight trip. Downtown Toronto offers world-class dining, shopping, museums, sports, and waterfront activities, along with iconic spots like the CN Tower and Harbourfront. For lake lovers, Lake Erie is within driving distance and offers beaches, boating, fishing, and charming lakeside towns—great for a relaxed day outdoors. Whether you’re looking for nature, food and wine, city exploring, or family-friendly activities, the Burlington area is a great home base with plenty to see and do nearby.
