Will there be parking at the event location?

The wedding will truly be a "Father of the Bride" event. It will be held at 183 Hartford Village Way, Kingston, TN. The ceremony will be outside, overlooking the Tennessee River. We have blocked rooms at the Embassy Suites in Knoxville West, which is under a 30 minute drive, if guests decide to stay there. We also suggest staying at any beautiful short-term rentals on Watts Bar Lake, in Farragut, or West Knoxville. We highly encourage carpooling with friends or family to take up less space in the neighborhood, or Ubering if you would like. We will have parking for guests along the street and some parking closer to the ceremony space reserved for those with mobility needs. We will also have a golf cart that can pick up anyone parking along the street who would like a ride. All we ask, is that if you drive, please be responsible!

what is the attire?

Cocktail. It will be late October, which is a mixed-bag for weather. We hope for a pleasant Fall evening, but it can be chilly that time of year, so dress accordingly. We will also have heaters and a firepit to enjoy the evening by.

Are plus ones and children allowed?

We want a small, intimate wedding with close friends and family. We also do not want any parents to not be able to come due to not being able to find a sitter. So, yes, if you were invited, of course feel free to bring your kiddos. We just ask that they behave themselves as best they can.

What date should I RSVP by?

We ask if you can to try to RSVP by August 25. The earlier, the better

Have we blocked off rooms at one or more hotels?

Yes! We have blocked rooms at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Knoxville West. It is beautiful with an outdoor courtyard, outdoor firepits for the fall, a huge bar with several TVs, and a generous free breakfast. It is about 25 minutes from the house.

What is the day itinerary?

The wedding will start at 4 pm. Guests are welcome to arrive starting at 3:30 and invited to enjoy a beverage as they get settled in. The ceremony will be short and intimate and should be done by 4:30. Kendall and Anna Grace will be taking their photos directly following the ceremony. Guests are invited to enjoy cocktail hour by the lake during this time. The sit-down, heavy hors d'oeuvres will begin around 6, followed by Matron Of Honor, Best Man, and Family speeches. The reception will follow dinner. We will have the First Dance and Father/Daughter dance, followed by dessert/cupcake serving for guests. The send off should be no later then 9:30.

Is it okay to post videos/pictures on social media?

No phones should be visible or audible during the ceremony. Personal photography is prohibited during the ceremony. Otherwise, feel free to post whatever you like or the moments you enjoyed during the reception. We will also have a QR code where guests can upload whatever videos or pictures to the app that they want to help remember the dinner or reception.

Are we registered anywhere/registry?

We feel like, at this time, we have everything we need to be comfortable in our home in Columbia. In lieu of gifts, we are welcoming any contributions to help us celebrate our Honeymoon. Our registry page has the link for the Honeymoon Fund. We appreciate all of you!
