FAQs

• Where does “Torhees” come from? A proper noun created by the Jay Beerman. Torhees is slang for the couple to be consisting of TOR Ryan Holtan (yes, the groom has a viking first name) and Stephanie Elise VorHEES.

• What will the weather be like? Now that we’re in August, it can get hot but usually is really nice! Typically, it’s in the low to mid 80’s during the day. Note that it STILL can get chilly at night, dipping down to the 50’s. A wrap (or suit jacket) is highly encouraged. Your best bet is to check the weather the week of and plan accordingly.
