Q + A

What time should I arrive to the ceremony?

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:00pm. Please arrive no later than 3:45pm to allow time to park, enter the venue, and find a seat. The ceremony will be held outside, pending weather forecasts. No late entry into the ceremony will be permitted.

What is the dress code?

We'd love our family and friends to dress up with us! Please dress in semi-formal summer attire. While we want you to be comfortable on our special day, please no jeans or casual attire. Ladies, mini/midi semi-formal or tea-length dresses are encouraged in any color, with the exception of bridal hues including white, cream, or beige. Gentlemen, dress shirt and tie, sports coat, or suits are encouraged.

Does the venue have parking?

Yes! There is plenty of complimentary parking at the venue with special handicap parking near the main entrance. There is a mixture of surface lot, street, and ramp parking depending on availability that day.

Am I allowed to take pictures and videos?

We kindly request that you enjoy the special moment with us and leave all cellphones in purses or pockets on silent until the end of the ceremony. We have hired an exceptionally talented team of photographers to capture every detail of the ceremony, and will absolutely share those photos with everyone afterwards. Following the ceremony, we would love for you to capture our special day and encourage you to snap away!

Are children welcome?

While we love your little ones, we have decided to keep our wedding an adults-only event, with the exception of a few older family members. That being said, we kindly ask you only bring those formally invited on your invitation. We hope you understand and enjoy the night off!

Is there an open bar?

Yes, the drinks are on us - get ready to celebrate! Please drink responsibly and have a ride home arranged if you plan on drinking and are not staying in the hotel room blocks on-site. We want all of our loved ones to get home safe!

Will there be hotel room accommodations & transportation?

Yes, we have rooms blocked at The Confluence Hotel in order to accommodate guests traveling from out of town or people from the area who would like to stay overnight for convenience. The link is provided in the “Travel” tab of our website. The rooms are priced at a reduced rate and are currently available to book - first come, first serve! We will not be providing any forms of guest transportation throughout the wedding weekend due to all events being held onsite at the hotel, where most guests will be staying.

Where should we bring/send our wedding gift?

Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for! However, if you would like to honor us with a gift, we have links under the “Registry” tab to both our honeymoon and house fund! A wedding card box will also be present at our reception.

How should I RSVP & can I bring a plus one?

We invite you to RSVP online through our website, and the date in which to RSVP by is May 1st, 2026. The RSVP link includes a place to enter your plus one, as well as an area to pick your dinner option and note any special dietary requests or allergies. Due to limited space, we will only be able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation.

Could you suggest places to eat, drink, & see while I'm in town?
