You'll be hungry again after all that dancing. We promise it will be good.

The Venue

The Toledo Club

A private club since 1889, with the marble, oak, and chandeliers to prove it. Park in the club's own lot, start with cocktails in the Red Room on the first floor, then head upstairs to the Main Dining Room. Follow the crowd, and the noise.

Address

235 14th Street

Toledo, OH 43604

Parking & Shuttle

Private lot, plus a shuttle

The Toledo Club has its own lot. A shuttle will also run between the hotels and the club before the reception, and from the club to the after party and back to the hotels afterward. Check back closer to the event for times.

The Main Dining Room at The Toledo Club, set for dinner

Non-negotiable, lovingly

Formal

Tuxedos, dinner jackets, dark suits. Floor-length or elegant cocktail. It's January in Ohio, so bring the good coat. There's a coat check.

Do

Dress like the room

Black tie, dark suits, gowns, velvet, sequins, a truly excellent shoe. The Toledo Club has never once been underdressed. Neither should you.

Maybe don't

Blend into the wallpaper

Dark and boring is allowed. Dark and interesting is better. Velvet, sequins, a bold shoe. This room can take it.

Encouraged

Navy and gold

You're absolutely allowed to match the wedding. In fact, please do. There will be photographs.

The Toledo Club's own house rule, which we're passing along word for word: proper business attire (collared shirt, pressed pants) is required inside the banquet rooms. No shorts, T-shirts, athletic apparel, ball caps, or denim are permitted in event rooms of The Toledo Club.

Stay downtown, cab home

Places to Stay

All of these are a short ride from the club. Book early, and mention the wedding if a block is listed.

Six questions. The winner gets bragging rights and a seat at dinner. So does the loser, but still.

Final score

0/6

11pm until they kick us out

Downtown Johnny's

513 Jefferson Ave, across from the Huntington Center and a short shuttle ride from the club. They've got a TouchTunes jukebox, which means the playlist is your problem now. Tick the after-party box on your RSVP so we know how many are coming. If you'd rather be asleep, we understand, and we're judging you gently.

Questions

Five o'clock. Dinner is seated at six upstairs, so if you're running late, aim to be in your chair by 5:50.

The wedding is. Cocktails in the Red Room on the first floor, then dinner, dessert, dancing, and late night bites in the Main Dining Room on the third floor. The reception wraps at 11, and the after party moves to Downtown Johnny's on Jefferson Ave. The shuttle goes there too.

Your code knows exactly how many seats are yours, and it'll show them when you unlock the RSVP. If we got it wrong, say so in the notes and we'll fix it.

Named guests only, and every name is listed on your RSVP. It's a late night in a private club, so most families are treating this as a night off.

The Toledo Club has private parking on site. A shuttle will also run before and after: hotels to the club, then club to the after party and back to the hotels. Check back closer to the event for times. Uber and Lyft run downtown all night if you'd rather not drive.

No registry. Our cabinets are full. There'll be a card box at the reception and an open bar, and we'd rather you spend your energy on the bar.

There is. Type TG1P2027 anywhere on this page, not in a box, just on the page, and see what happens. Turn your sound up first.

It's Toledo in January. Assume cold, possibly snow, definitely a coat. Coat check is right inside the door.
