CEREMONY & RECEPTION
Black
Creek Pioneer Village is a living history museum recreating
Ontario's colourful past. More than 35 homes, workshops, public
buildings and farms recreate the atmosphere of life in a rural Victorian
community of the 1860s. Craftspeople and workers wearing period costumes
demonstrate skills such as open-hearth cooking, bread-making, looming,
milling, blacksmithing, sewing, printing and more. The village is
especially picturesque in the fall and we encourage our guests to stroll
through the homes, farms and woodlands either before or after the
ceremony. Although public access to the buildings ends at 4:30 PM,
you may continue to walk through the grounds until 5:00.
This unique
wedding site has some special guidelines of which guests should be aware:
-
The entrance
to the village is through the Visitor's Centre. We recommend
that you arrive at the village at 3:00 PM at the very latest in order
to allow for a 10 minute walk from the parking lot to the
church. Guests with special needs should contact us in
advance so that we can make appropriate arrangements.
-
Inform the
parking lot attendant and the Visitor Centre cashier that you are with
the Marshall Taylor wedding to receive complementary parking and
admission.
-
The church is
identified on the Black Creek Pioneer Village
site map you received with your
invitation (click
here to print it again). See DIRECTIONS
above for directions to the site.
-
Confetti is
not permitted anywhere on the grounds.
Guests
who received Reception cards should let us know of any special dietary
or mobility needs. We regret to inform our guests that the
reception venue is not wheelchair accessible. The Half Way House
is also identified on the Black Creek Pioneer Village
site map.
AFTER-PARTY
There's
parking beside the restaurant but if you're coming from downtown play it
safe and take the subway instead (it's only 4 stops from the hotel!) or
grab a cab. The entrance to Joe's
Elbow room is located just under the main entrance to Joe Badali's.
See DIRECTIONS above for instructions on how to get to the restaurant.
