We are thrilled to incorporate a cherished Filipino wedding tradition into our celebration—the Money Dance! This festive custom involves well-wishers, like yourselves, dancing with the newlyweds and pinning money onto their attire as a symbol of love, support, and prosperity for their new life together. Here's how it works: 1. Wait for the MC to announce the Money Dance. 2. Approach the dance floor when invited. 3. Attach your monetary gift securely and dance with the bride or groom! (see link below for an example) If you'd like to join in, feel free to bring cash, but most importantly, we look forward to celebrating with you!

As we prepare to celebrate our love in style, we're embracing a black-tie dress code with a splash of color! To help us execute our vision, we kindly ask that you avoid wearing black and instead, dive into our wedding’s color palette [see below]. Think elegant, chic, and vibrant! Fashion is a huge part of the bride's life, so we’re thrilled for you to get creative and bring your most stunning looks to life. Whether it’s a dashing tux or a glamorous gown, we can’t wait to see how you express your unique style while being a part of our unforgettable day. For inspiration, you can visit this link:

While your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift of all, if you’d like to contribute to our new chapter, we’ve created a fund to help us build our dream home. Instead of traditional gifts, your generosity will help us create a space filled with love, laughter, and memories for years to come.

Help us capture and share the love by using our wedding hashtag: #StarksAtLast Whether you're snapping pics, sharing heartfelt messages, or posting hilarious dance floor moments, don't forget to include our hashtag. Your unique perspective will add an extra layer of magic to our memories!

The ceremony will begin promptly at 11:00AM. Late arrivals may not be able to be accommodated, so please plan your travel and arrival time accordingly to avoid any disappointment. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in making our ceremony a smooth and timely experience for everyone.

The wedding ceremony and reception will both take place indoors!

We thought it might be helpful to provide a quick weather update for January. Typically, Charlotte experiences cool temperatures during this time of year, with average highs around 52 degrees and lows around 31 degrees. The venue will be comfortably heated, so you can dress in layers to easily adjust to the temperature. We encourage you to bring a stylish jacket or shawl for any outdoor transitions.

As we exchange our vows, we kindly ask for your presence in the moment and your full attention during our ceremony. To ensure an intimate and distraction-free atmosphere, we request that you refrain from taking photos or recording videos.

We're so excited to celebrate our wedding day with our closest family and friends! Due to our wedding being an intimate gathering, we ask that only those named on the invitations attend. Thank you for understanding!

As we eagerly anticipate our special day, we want to ensure that everything runs smoothly. To streamline communication and allow us to fully enjoy each moment, we kindly ask that you direct any wedding-related inquiries or concerns to our wonderful wedding coordinator, Adrian McKnight. You can contact her by email at yourceoplanner@gmail.com.
