Since the ceremony will be held in the gymnasium, there is no limit to the number of guests who may attend. We respectfully request that very young children not attend the ceremony in the gym, but instead enjoy the ceremony at our on-campus simulcast room where there will be toys and more freedom than at the actual ceremony.
